Over the years the internet has advanced from dial up, to satellite, DSL, fiber internet, to
now cellular network which also includes WI-FI. WI-FI and the internet in general is a very
important tool that businesses and consumers use daily. Many people today connect to a
wireless internet service upon waking up in the morning in their homes, or to run their
companies, which has provided a lot of internet services providers with business. There are
also many people that unfortunately do not have a wireless internet service provider due to the
cost, which is one of the reasons why municipal wireless networks are popular today.
A Municipal wireless network is a network that is available citywide or covers a broad
area of the city using Wi-Fi. This wireless service is usually implemented and funded by
government bodies. A municipal wireless network allows an immense number of people within
a region to connect their devices to the internet with minimum disruption by using wireless
mesh technology. For many who cannot afford an internet service provider living within range
of municipal wireless network is a benefit because the service is free.
Many cities have taken an interest in developing this type of network because it
allows for reliable internet with consistent access for many within range. People rely on
internet service every day, and it also helps to improve infrastructure, services, as well as the
efficiency of how we function in society today. This network can grant police officers and
firefighters access to criminal records, cameras and other important information. Public safety
officials usually also have access to a licensed 4.9 GHz of the spectrum, so they can always
stay connected to the network.
