Sorry. I-17 and 101 is correct. The second link I gave takes you
directly to the web page for that location.

Considering Bell Road is about 2 miles from Loop 101, it's well within
your 6 mile radius requirement.

Umm. Well. You're probably going to kick yourself, but it was only the
sixth hit down on a Google search of "wifi" [1]. (I'm not counting the
sponsored hit at the top of the search results.) That sixth hit took
me to the "Wi-Fi-FreeSpot Directory" [2]. Scroll down a bit and
there's a list of states. I clicked Arizona and that took me to a page
listing free hotspots in Arizona [3].

The Arizona listing mentioned "Wildflower Bread Company" with a
location at "SW intersection of Loop 101 and I-17" which is within
your radius requirement. I then did a Google search for "Wildflower
Bread Company Phoenix" (sans quotes) [4] and the rest is history. :-)
