I got lost in
Hiroshima
![Page 8: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
My phone couldn’t call...
![Page 9: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
And I couldn’t withdraw money from
an ATM
![Page 10: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
All because the “free wi-fi” labels in cafes and in apps weren’t clearly explained.
![Page 11: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
All because the “free wi-fi” labels in cafes and in apps weren’t clearly explained.So I figured it out.
![Page 12: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The TOP 5 METHODS for Wi-Fi in Japan
![Page 13: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Japan Connected-Free Wi-fi
An app you need to have downloaded and ready. Do it
before you leave.
![Page 14: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
At the airport (Haneda/Narita) find the Japan wi-fi kiosk
(the tourist information center can tell you where it is)
![Page 15: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
It will have you scan your passport so have that ready
![Page 16: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
It will then spit out a little receipt that has a long password valid for 14 days exact (down to the hour)
![Page 17: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Once you login with this password, your device saves it. Keep this receipt just in case you switch
devices or need to re-enter it at any time.
![Page 18: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
You can use this wi-fi in lots of train stations (but not all) and
many other spots as well. If you see a wi-fi sticker in a cafe wall
just try it and see if it works.
![Page 19: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
It will kick you out after 2 hours of continuous use. It can be slow if a lot of people are using it. And it is
unsecured.
![Page 20: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

download an offline map which
is a very useful feature.

Travel Japan a wi-fi app
handy to have just in case
![Page 23: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
It will require you to install a "profile". This is what helps connect your phone to the
network.
![Page 24: Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070521/58eff2c31a28ab046f8b45cf/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

time

Both Japan Connected-Free Wi-fi and Travel Japan work well. Keep
both ready.
