That’s a lot of users connected to one Wi-Fi network, which can compromise the experience. And if it’s a busy holiday weekend, there’ll be even more travelers trying to get online—which is why if you’re planning on connecting to Wi-Fi this Labor Day (or any other time of the year), you should beat the crowds and turn to Boingo Wireless.
