Can we start listing WiFi spots in Idaho Falls/Ammon, please? I know many of us know some but they may not be as accessible or obvious to those either traveling through or those who are relocating and need internet access to learn where things are locally.

Are there any car care service centers that offer it or laundromats etc. ? That is info that most don't think of needing until the need arises and they can't get online.

And please update if WiFi has been removed, although I think that is doubtful.

Also, is there any business in Idaho Falls/Ammon who rents a single computer if one is needed temporarily by an individual? I've always thought this would be a great business, along with computer rentals like FedEx does in bigger cities.

I'll start by listing a couple of WiFis locations.

1. Starbucks
2. Barnes and Noble

Looking forward to info from those who know.

MSR

Teton Toyota has free WiFi, so does Texas Roadhouse, Buffalo Wild Wings, McD's at Walmart in Ammon (my silly phone always tries to pick it up , I think most McD's, don't know as I don't frequent there.

As far as renting one, clueless...

Thanks Cleosmom. I'll sure be happy when you get enough rep points for your gold star! You've helped so many people with info, including me.

WiFi Access in Idaho Falls/Ammon

1. Starbucks - Near Idaho Falls Walmart, Olive Garden and Fairfield Inn (Houston Street)
2. Barnes and Noble - Grand Teton Mall
3. Teton Toyota - Sunnyside exit

Hey, MSR, we are planning our initial look at IF/Poky for early to mid September so this is good info for us. Thanks for thinking of it. Most larger hotel/motel chains provide free Wifi for their guests. I made our reservations and never even thought to ask, since there are Starbucks everywhere and their modus operendi
is to give that service to keep folks in the store drinking coffee and eating muffins.

And was glad to see a Buffalo Wild Wings in town as I was beginning to wonder if I would shed any of my extra weight while we visit. Now I'm assured of probably adding another pound or two. Thanks for the great health tip included with the wifi info!!!!

You're welcome Warden for anything I've done to help. You never know what we'll be thinking of next to add as threads. Please continue to contribute

Yes, almost all the hotels have WiFi - - It's a good point to make though.

I was thinking of travelers or new residents who didn't have their ISPs in place yet and needed info..

Does anyone know if ISU/IF has WiFi or EITC?

I can add Bella Vita to the list too.

exactly and many restaurants too.

That being said, I can't write one of the network names here that was available. I'm sure the owner uses those words to keep users confused of which business it is.

If you learn of any others I-Ruehl, please post them.

Well I was right there is a Laundromat that has WiFi, but the one advertised does not have it. The one that does I discovered by accident (it's open 24 hrs/day). It's the Double Bubble by the Ammon Walmart and the World Gym. I guess you can let your clothes wash and go to the gym for a while ... LOL
