I travel frequently with a laptop and have no difficulty finding wifi in most hotels, coffee shops, etc. by just using a Intel wifi conncection utility or whatever utility came installed on your laptop.

I always have security concerns when accessing unfamiliar networks. Just make sure you have a good firewall and AV apps, and run them daily. I am overly cautious so do limit accessing broker and bank accounts. That being said over many years of travel I have never had a negative encounter using public wifi. Just be sure not to save passwords on the network.
