WiFi Service is Available* - Our users were able to connect to the CLE free wifi service using host name “CLE_GUEST” at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. Read our comprehensive Cleveland Hopkins International Airport WiFi Guide plus user comments now. Also see the Free WiFi Access Tip for CLE


Cleveland Hopkins International Airport (IATA: CLE, ICAO: KCLE) is a public airport located 9 miles (14 km) southwest of downtown Cleveland, in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, USA and is the largest airport in the state of Ohio. The airport lies just within the city limits of Cleveland.

The airport was named for former City Manager William R. Hopkins. It was founded in 1925, making it one of the oldest municipally owned airports in the United States. The airport has been the site of many airport firsts: the first air traffic control tower and the first airfield lighting system, both in 1930; and the first U.S. airport to be directly connected to a local or regional rail transit system, in 1968.

Cleveland Hopkins International Airport handled 11,460,002 passengers in 2005, a growth of nearly 2% over 2004. It is a major hub for both Continental Airlines and its regional carrier ExpressJet. Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, along with Cleveland Burke Lakefront Airport (BKL) comprise the Cleveland Airport System operated by the City of Cleveland.

Cleveland Hopkins International Airport recently celebrated its 80th anniversary and unveiled a new logo and marketing plan to better associate the airport with its mother city, Cleveland. There was discussion of dropping “Hopkins” from the airport’s name and changing its FAA airport designator to CIA — Cleveland International — but the city ultimately kept the name as a result of discussions with the namesake’s descendants. In late 2005, Cleveland Hopkins International Airport began a new campaign using the slogan “Travel Smart, Travel Well” to compete with the highly-successful and growing Akron-Canton Regional Airport, located just to the south.

    CLE Free WiFi Access Tip: You can get on-line at Cleveland airport near Continental President’s Club in terminal C! Sit in the Berger King opposite the club for a good reception. Find the outlets near the pay phone bank.

    ATT’s wifi has been shut down at Cleveland Hopkins, and Cleveland Hopkins has no WiFi what so ever other then some small desk top terminals by SBC that you have to pay like 5 dollars a day. CLE in the dark ages in this airport.

    It’s pretty sad when your city’s airport is outshined by a McDonald’s in the area of technology. Maybe Jimmy Dimora had to shut it down because of the FBI investigations.

    Any airport that does not offer free wifi is in the dark ages. I am totally spoiled by Tampa.

    WiFi is no longer available. You can’t even buy it. The closest Boingo hotspot is at some McDonald’s a few miles away. I was stuck without e-mail for several hours. I thought I could pass the time by grabbing some Great Lakes beer, but that was really hard to find.

    2009 and I can’t access a service that I previously used to access at hopkins(bingo)… Just another example of why we are no longer “the best location in the nation”. Third world countries are more progressive than this shit-hole.

    A three hour layover here at CLE (in from YYZ) is painful without wifi! Thank god I have an iPhone, but my laptop is useless. What in the world is the management of this airport thinking? I will NEVER make a connection through here again!

    ATT web still lists this is an active hotspot. I flew through CLE 2 days ago and got nothing. I’ll be there again today, but I’ll be connecting elsewhere from now on. CLE loses and so will Continental… which is about the only airline keeping CLE in business it seems.

    The rumor is that the people at CLE are converting the WiFi service from a fee based service to a Free WiFi service. The current down time for the WiFi service at the airport is temporary until the new Free WiFi network is in place.

    I am waiting to hear back from the Cleveland airport to confirm this.

    In CLE and no free wifi can be found. At least near Southwest terminals B8 -B 11. I see the attwifi as available but cannot access the Internet. Very dissapointing… I am holding out that soon someone will get a hint… How hard is it to set up wireless???

    Attwifi shows up but no interwebs. Not even their pay-per-use page. There’s also CLE_guest listed, but that just seems to be airport information and not a web access portal. The airport has been going thru renovation, but wifi looks like it’s bottom of the list.

    Walked through concourses C and D. Discovered 3 or 4 unlocked wifi networks (default, Free Public Wifi, Oasis (Free) are 3 I remember). Signal strength was 1-2 (out of 5) bars, but sporadically jumps up to 4-5 and then back down again. Once connected to any of the networks, you still cannot access the web. Used my iPhone to search google to see if there was a magic trick I had to perform and ended up finding this thread. CLE, I’m avoiding you for a good year now…thanks.

    I’m here in CLE today (12/24/09) and was able to connect to their free WiFi (it’s named CLE_GUEST). I’m sitting at gate C8.

    I used to be able to connect using their paid service because I have an SBC log-in, so it doesn’t make a big difference to me. However, I’m a big fan of free WiFi for all, so I’m glad CLE finally got with the times!
