| The next step for the FCC
Now the FCC should do something about the various airlines that have made deals with carriers, like T-Mobile, to provide wireless access in their club's for a fee (Delta's Crown Rooms as an example). It seems that many of these clubs seem to block access to free wireless that is provided by the airport itself.
In PBI (West Palm Beach) the airport provides free wireless access. But, Delta's Crown Room advertises T-Mobile, who provides some Business Center Services to Delta. Most of the time, the free access isn't available in the Crown Room, although it is only separated from the main airport concourse by thin wall. If I stand by the door with my laptop, it works, if sit down 3 feet away, it won't connect.
Is it being blocked electronically? I really don't know. But it is something to think about.
