Re: Rosy muni-WiFi stories getting fewer and fewer

WiFi, while a great network topology to use, is not meant for MAN installations. At best, coverage of common space areas (parks, business lunch areas, ect) are best served in this manner.

Cellular data services and poorly/purposely openned AP's are your best alternative for wireless connectivity.

This says nothing about WISP operators. They focus their attention in a different direction than the "ubiquitous wireless city" vision these projects are hoping for...and failing at.
