FreedomPop

FreedomPop carries one of the most generous plans to access the Internet for free. Here’s how it works. They send you a small wireless router access point. You carry the device with you and turn on the device when you need Internet access. It works wherever you are, letting you browse as long as you need to.

They ask for a deposit on the device, but as long as you return the device within a year you get a full refund. If you decide to keep using FreedomPop you keep the device and they keep the deposit as payment for the device.

FreedomPop allows you 500MB of FREE data each month with their free plan. This should cover the needs of most light users, however, if you need more data you may want to switch to one of their other plans.

For example, they have a 2GB plan as low as $9.99 per month if you prepay 12 months. Even though the other options at FreedomPop aren’t free, they may cost you less money than your current Internet service plan does.
