Yesterday a transformer in tenisha’s neighborhood blew and her entire block lost electricity. because she must upload her week 4 paper by midnight in order to avoid a late penalty, tenisha decides to go to a local coffee shop that has wi-fi. when she gets there, she sees on her computer that there is hotspot access. what other information will she see when she clicks on the hotspot name?

Public hotspots such as the one Tenisha encountered in a local coffee shop allows people to gain Wi-fi through a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) which uses a router that is connected to an internet service provider. Tenisha, upon clicking the hotspot name, will be prompted to connect to the network. Afterwards, she may be required to type in a password in order to be connected to the internet.
