When you start your browser at McDonalds, you'll be redirected to their entry portal. You'll click a link to select connection method and that will take you to another page where you can select Wayport Customer, Prepaid Card, Promotional Code, Buy One-Time Usage, and Roaming Partner. From the Roaming Partner page select "Freedomlink" (it's usually the default) and it takes you right to the normal baby blue Freedomlink signon page.
I've used it at about 15 different participating McDonalds throughout the country. Only had one place where I encountered difficulty. The Roaming Partner link was dead. I called the McDonalds-Wayport Customer Service number and got a rep immediately and he could see the problem but could not fix it right away, so he just gave me a free one-day code to enter, and I was on in a jiffy with that. Great and fast customer service from Wayport's McDonalds Desk, I thought.
