I was at starbucks with friends this evening and was trying to use their free wi-fi but unable to get connected. My friend was able to connect using a laptop. Do I need to setup something?

You will see the free node listed under internet connections. After selecting it, it is possible that you first have to pass through a login procedure using the browser (personally I am not familiiar with (S)tarbucks).

In that case it was not a 'free' as in 'open' connection as I had to enter a password.
