Metro Wireless Special Interest Group
The WCA's MetroSIG is a forum for discussion of all aspects related
to the deployment of wireless broadband by municipalities and
public entities. Monthly meetings are hosted at which speakers
discuss key topics and active interchange between the speakers and
audience is encouraged. Previous speakers have included key players
from Google, Cisco, Hewlett Packard, Intel and many others...
Much has been written about cities and governments who are
deploying or planning to deploy wireless broadband networks,
however there remain many critical questions:
- What is the business model?
- Who pays for "free" service?
- What is the value of advertisement?
- Can you get something for nothing?
The answers to these questions will determine success or failure.
The MetroSIG will soon launch a special website intended to
promote communication between, and education of, Wireless ISPs.
