It is not recommended to connect your smartphone to the congress wifi, if you still can't resist, here are a few things to consider:
- make sure that it's **not a 802.11b** device, as it would slow down the complete wifi network.
- disable all synchronization services, as they might be using plaintext

- use a Firewall and only allow the (few) services you trust.
