I miss free WiFi
Now the best you get with Adael (Café WISP) is 20mins free WiFi – that kind of behavior forced me to move to a 3g+ USB stick – it’s weird to see that telcos have won the battle of WiFi – it has become so hard, hectic and rare to find working WiFi that I got almost forced on paying some money to telcos to make sure that I can get network access whenever I need it.
I’m pretty sad about this – WiFi is in my opinion not a reliable technology – it doesn’t propagate well, you have no real way of knowing where antenna is and thus I always am reluctant to pay while I know that I might not get decent service and thus value for money. I really hope that FON could do something here but I feel it hard to be optimistic as there is still so much to do…
Hi. I am wondering that the BWA(Broadband Wireless Access) service using 3G usb stick is popular in France. How many people use that kinds of service? I heard that Clearwire in US started to prepare mobile WiMAX business in France. I am also wondering that mobile WiMAX business could be well operated in France.
