Just saw this on the Netgear site. I’m not too excited about this phone. Sure its got Skype functions but the Skype WiFi phone does not contain a web browser therefore can not access hotspots, which require web-based login or authentication. That’s pretty dumb. You’ll need find a hotspot that does not have security authentication enabled on it.
