"Hi. I'm Chris Bryce from superservice.com. Today I'd like to talk to you about how to connect to free wi-fi. Now the first step in connecting to free wi-fi is to make sure you get a list of the available networks that you can connect to. Now if you're in a location that has free wi-fi you're going to want to take your computer and go to the lower right hand corner of your screen. You'll see two monitors that are kind of joined together with a red X. This shows that you're not currently connected to a network. If you click once on that icon it'll show you that there are wireless networks available. Choose the connect to a network link and once you do that you'll find a list of the available networks. Look for the one that's noted unsecured network. In this case we happen to have one that's named free wi-fi. You'll simply click on that available network and then choose connect. You may get a notice saying that this network is unsecured, but you can go ahead and continue anyway to make sure that you can connect to a free wi-fi. Once you do that you should see a message that says you're successfully connected. You can close that box, get on the internet and start enjoying your free wi-fi."
