The Fon network in Brazil is formed by our standard Fon Spots and Oi WiFi Fon hotspots. Here is all you need to know so you can connect to our network in Brazil as a Sharing member.
Sharing members can get access using two different ways:
- seemlessly using a co-branded connecion manager app (only available for our partners customers in Portugal, Belgium, Greece and Poland)
- seemlessly using the Fon WiFi app (only available for active residential Fonera owners)
- manually through a hotspot login page (following the below steps)
1. Sharing members through Oi
If you are a Oi subscriber with the Fon service enabled on your router:
- Look to see if a WiFi signal "Oi WiFi Fon" is in range of your device and if so, connect to it.
- Open your web browser and wait for the Oi Fon login page to load. If it doesn't, type any web address, i.e."www.bbc.com" into your browser's address bar.
- Select "Oi WiFi" in the drop down menu and log in with your Oi username and password.
Once logged in, your session will start.
