Free public WiFi in Rotterdam
Rotterdam is the first city in Netherlands with free public wireless internet, the so-called Rotterdam Hotspot. If you log on to this network, you first get a cityportal with an unlimited wireless internet access powered by provider Republicom. This mobile network only works on the streets in the centre of Rotterdam.

Free internet Rotterdam: 3G vs WiFi
Of course you can use a 3G network in Rotterdam, but why surf slowly if you can do it so much faster? Telephone providers also charge you more and more for their 3G network. Abroad, cafes and restaurants on every street corner offer free WiFi, but that is not the case in the Netherlands. It's quite disappointing if you cannot update your Facebook page for a longer time, right?
