Re: Rosy muni-WiFi stories getting fewer and fewer

said by Karl Bode:

Philly is not only a smashing success, it was recently rated one of the best performing networks in the country.
LOL. Philly has several pilot areas still starting up. Access is practically nil. Philly's rating is based on Verizon's cellphone data access capabilities and has little to do with their muni project. »www.wirelessphiladelphia.org/wir···reas.cfm
EarthLink and Wireless Philadelphia are currently wrapping-up functionality tests in this area
They aren't even done testing their hardware yet.

I have relatives in 3 areas of Philadelphia. And muni WiFi is available in none of them even though the Earthlink map shows coverage. Coverage is more like very limited hotspots in specific areas of the so-called covered areas.

You don't actually know what you're talking about:

I'm sorry your aunt or whomever can't get service. The fact is you see failure where you'd like there to be failure.
