WiFi on this phone is best used on unsecured routers (like at home or friends house). Panera, airports, and whoever else who has wifi you have to pay the fees. I am with Cingular so I can't anwers your second question.

You can connect to any unsecured WiFi network and you can connect to any WiFi you have the network password to as well. You can browse the internet with out a data plan if you connect to WiFi. For the modem part you should be able to connect to the WiFi you want and then start the modem to work off that signal. I haven't tried it yet but it would work in theory.
