Free Wireless Internet (WiFi) Access Points in Austin, Texas

Quacks got their act together yet?Posted by GG at 4:37pm March 08, 2005 Flag This

I've tried Quack's a couple of times. After getting a special login id for their system, my system repeatedly bluescreened while attempting to connect. Not a happy camper here. Do you still need the special id? Have they gotten the bugs out of their wireless yet?

Great connection at Quack's. No problems here.

Repeated connection problems and few AC outletsPosted by JD at 09:45am December 17, 2004 Flag This

I have gone to Quack's 2 times. Each time, I have been unable to connect to the Internet. After the first time, my computer maker's tech support verified the proper operation of my machine and changed one of the settings. Then, I was able to connect to the Internet at another coffee shop while still being able to connect wirelessly at home. Today, I was unsuccessful again connecting to the Internet at Quack's. Their staff is not helpful in solving the problem. In fact, the employee suggested I had a problem with my brand new machine! In addition, there are only a few working AC outlets. One customer had her machine plugged into an outlet next to a toaster. The wall outlet I first tried was completely dead.

My advice: don't bother with Quack's.

Quack's now has free internet!Posted by Matt McCabe (www) at 09:21am January 19, 2004 Flag This

According to a sign on the door, Quack's now claims to have free wireless. I haven't tried it out yet...so try it out at your own risk ;)

The WiFi may not be free, but the baked goods are sooooooo tasty, it may be worth the premium.

Service rather slow tonight.Posted by Josh Knowles (www) at 8:37pm September 03, 2002 Flag This

The service out at Quack's tonight is extremely slow. Don't know what the problem is. And it seems like about half the time the service isn't working at all. Maybe they'll work out the bugs soon, because I like hanging out here.
