Just fresh from their handy celebration of more than 2 billion monthly connected users . With this recent upgrade, one can now locate and connect to available hotspots and nearby businesses, near you.

You might have been considering how this feature is made possible, Facebook has a way of extracting already saved information that businesses owners and companies have added to their business pages on Facebook.

Mind you, Facebook is not going to reveal every business or company details near you that might have WiFi available features, just those that are on Facebook. This is an essential feature because it is almost impossible to find any business that does not have a page or account on Facebook.
It could still be pretty useful though. Here’s how to go about locating that Wi-fi of yours.

Open the Facebook app on any Facebook enabled gadget and then click the “More” icon.

Select “Find WiFi” tab from the drop-down list of available options
