Free public Wifi hotspots in Lamoille 

November 2, 2021 – Did you know there are a number of places in Lamoille that offer free, publicly accessible WiFi? The Department of Public Services assembled a list of all such locations in March 2020 and maintains a map of them on their website.

 The DPS cautions anyone using these public WiFi services to be safe and secure while they do so. Stay in your vehicle or distance from others as a COVID-19 precaution. And as with any public internet connection, be especially careful when accessing sensitive information, such as online banking. A list of cybersecurity resources, along with a complete state map of public WiFi locations, can be found on the DPS’s website at https://publicservice.vermont.gov/content/public-wifi-hotspots-vermont
