Free Geek has several Internet access terminals at the Community Technology Center that are free for our volunteers and clients to use while they are here.

Free Geek provides computer systems and some support for free Internet access points at the following locations in SE Portland:

Red & Black Cafe
400 SE 12th Ave. @ Oak

Terms of this program:

  1. Anywhere a GAP box goes, it should be available to the public.
  2. Don’t charge for use, though having a donation can is fine.
  3. Would you like us to support your system(s)? Use the software we put on them.
  4. Our resources are limited. Every time we add a new GAP site, we want to add another gapster to the pool — someone who can watch the ‘puters out in the wild.
  5. We want to be able to actually get to the place (if we’re supporting it) so it should be somewhere near Free Geek or otherwise easily accessible by gapsters.
  6. Want a GAP box without FG support? Probably OK if you really have your own tech support. You may want to install your own software.
  7. We can provide the hardware, but you’ll need to supply the internet service to your GAP boxen.

To see if we can provide you with some hardware and support for a GAP box at your business, please apply for a hardware grant and let us know of your intentions on the application.
