Spectrum (Charter) Internet                                                     

If you are a Spectrum Internet customer, you have unlimited access to the following hotspots:                      

  • SpectrumWiFi
  • SpectrumWiFi Plus         
  • CableWiFi          
  • Boingo                                                                                                                                   

Spectrum Access Pass                                                                                                                                    

If you’re not a Spectrum Internet customer, you can still use Spectrum WiFi hotspots by buying an Access Pass. The pass can only be purchased on the Spectrum WiFi network (not CableWiFi or Boingo).

To start, you can get an access code for a 30-minute free trial, which is good for one session of 30 consecutive minutes. To get the 30-minute free trial:

  1. Enable WiFi on your mobile device.
  2. Select SpectrumWiFi from the list of available networks.
  3. Open your web browser, which displays the sign-in screen.
  4. Select Free WiFi Trial.
  5. Enter your name and the email address or the mobile phone number to which you want your access code delivered.
  6. Once you’ve reviewed the Terms & Conditions, select Get Access Code. An access code is then delivered to you.
  7. Copy the access code and then enter it in your browser.
  8. Select Get Started to connect to the Spectrum WiFi network.
