The city of Boston, Massachusetts is officially launching a wireless hotzone in Grove Hall/Dudley Square neighborhood (by Roxbury and Dorchester). Click here [1] to view the coverage map.
The network is the result of a partnership among openairboston.net [2], Galaxy Internet (an Internet Service Provider) and BelAir Networks, an equipment vendor. According to the press release, since the soft launch in late August 2007, “the network has already had over 3,000 unique users, with average session length of 79 minutes per user.” There are 8,000 households within the pilot area who can get Internet for as little as $9.95 a month.
