If you want Internet service in your home, you have to buy the service from
the cable company, or the phone company. These folks will, for a
monthly fee or around $30, provide you with a DSL modem or a cable modem. Most
of the companies now offer a wireless modem that connects to the cable or
phone line and then broadcasts a WiFi signal for you to use. You can put
security on that signal if you wish (strongly recommended).
If you do not to pay for Internet access at your home, then you can pack up
your laptop and go to places like Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, and maybe
your town library who offer free Internet access. This can become "old" in
short order, but there is no cost.

It means you live near several Hot Spots. In this day and age, many, many
folks are putting up their own "hotspot" at home so that everyone in the
home can use a single Internet provider.
I travel in my RV and it is not unusual to turn on the computer and see
anywhere from 3 to 15 hotspots. I have my own hotspot, security protected,
and if someone is traveling with me I can give them the key so they can
also
log on.
People are generally much better educated and now activate the security
measures on their routers, and that is why you get the "locked"
indication.

Thanks to everyone who chimed in to help me with
internet access questions. I really appreciate it a lot.
A follow up: I live right in the central area of Los
Angeles. When I fire up my Mac, the Wi Fi thing in the
right top of my computer comes on, and lists several
(locked) networks.
Does that mean I live near a "Wi Fi Hot Spot?" ...Greg
