A method for searching a wireless Internet zone by using a mobile terminal is provided to enable a user to easily find out a wireless Internet communication-possible area by using his/her mobile terminal, although a notebook computer is turned off. A RAS(Radio Access Station), if a wireless Internet access-possible confirm request signal is normally received from a mobile terminal, extracts ID information of the mobile terminal from the received signal(S101,S103). Then, the RAS transmits the wireless Internet access-possible confirm request signal to an ACR(Access Control Router) together with the extracted ID information(S105). The ACR, based on the received wireless Internet access-possible confirm request signal, grasps an associated mobile communication network(S107) and transmits a wireless Internet access-possible signal to an associated HLR(Home Location Register) in the grasped mobile communication network(S109). The home location register, receiving the wireless Internet access-possible signal, transmits it to the mobile terminal through an associated MSC(Mobile Switching Center) and an associated BTS(Base station Transceiver System)/BSC(Base Station Controller) in the mobile communication network(S111,S113).
