The name of the 54 Mbps wireless
router used by
FON. It plugs into your
broadband Internet connection, and turns it into a public wireless access point (
AP), which can then be accessed by members of the FON
Wi-Fi community if in that area. For this reason, FON calls the La Fonera a social router and members can personalize the page that other members see when they log on to your FON Access Point. The La Fonera router offers two secured Wi-Fi signals. One encrypted Wi-Fi signal that is only for your own private use and a second one that requires authentication and is for all other registered
Foneros.
