It can connect to any wifi hotspot or you can use bluetooth to connect to your cellphone (you must have a data plan on your phone) via DUN. Wifi range is typically better than most laptops. As for a list of wifi hotspots, you may be able to find one online, but they usually only list subscription-type hotspots.
