You can use our WirelessMon software (http://www.passmark.com/products/wirelessmonitor.htm) to locate secure and open hotspots (assuming you have a wireless network card). But we would suggest you get permission from the owner of the access point before you start using someone elses bandwidth.

If the latop has built in Wifi, then you don't need a Wifi card. You do need the correct device drivers however. These will have come with the laptop (probably pre-installed). But as this is a old machine, you should check with the manufactuers for updates.
