Aloha,
I'm here one week out of each month, building my retirement tiny house. During that time, I need to check in at work for a few hours on certain days. We have no electricity yet.
Where can a person hook into a good connection? I hate to eternally occupy a cafe seat. Does Island Naturals have a hot spot? How about the HPP Community Center? I'm willing to pay a small amount. Just need a connection, an electrical outlet, a chair, and a small surface. Outside OK if covered.
Mahalo in advance! Deborah

Pahoa library is your best option. Cheapest option is Puna Java in Pahoa (or is that Sirius now) for the cost of a cup of coffee in the morning or other similar nearby internet cafe (as of my Sep. 2011 trip) or the McDonalds in Keaau but not a nice environment. Worst case would be drive to Hilo Starbucks. There is at least one expensive signal you can pay to get onto but may vary depending on exact location.

Target now has guest wi-fi throughout the store - I imagine it extends to the Starbucks at the front as well.
Today is the oldest you've ever been and the youngest you'll ever be, enjoy this day!
I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.

Safeway next to Target has a nice cafe area at the front with wifi. Nobody ever seems to buy anything, just use the free wifi.

I believe the burger king has free wifi.

The best is the University... esp around the library & UCB.
During school days until 4pm you will need to pay for parking, but you can sit out on the library plaza (even after those hours...)
Really handy if you are planning to go to one of the many evening lectures, films or theater offerings...
