Etiquette Rules to Follow When Using Wi-Fi

These days most of us can’t live without good Wi-Fi, but regardless of how desperate we may be to have it, there are some rules that should never be broken when it comes to staying connected.

A new survey commissioned by full fibre broadband provider Hyperoptic, found

  • More than two-thirds of people use Wi-Fi daily.
  • Folks spend an average of six hours a day connected for things like games and dating apps.
  • They spend another four hours connected for work, and one hour for exercising. 

But when it comes to using and getting Wi-Fi, most people agree there is certain etiquette all folks should follow.

The Top Ten Wi-Fi etiquette rules are:

  1. Never connect to someone else’s Wi-Fi without asking first.
  2. Never change someone’s Wi-Fi password
  3. Never hijack a neighbor’s Wi-Fi
  4. Don’t give that person’s Wi-Fi code to anyone else
  5. Don’t use your phone at the dinner table
  6. Don’t sit in a coffee shop all day using Wi-Fi without buying a drink
  7. Don’t open any links that look dodgy when using someone else’s Wi-Fi
  8. Don’t sit on your gadget/ on the Internet when you are in someone else’s house
  9. Don’t send or download large files on someone else’s Internet
  10. Don’t go somewhere just to use their Internet
