Wireless@SG – Love the Potential but Disappointed at the Delivery

Wireless@SG, an island-wide free wireless broadband service, was officially launched on December 1st. Excited as I was, I took out my Wi-fi enabled mobile phone and decided to give this baby a test drive. After all, able to surf the net free even in some designated areas at this initial phase is a dream comes true.

After an hour or two trying out the various locations, I must say I am disappointed by the quality of the network. It is still far from the vision of seamless wireless broadband that is supposed to have a speed of 512kpbs. Hence, application is limited. However, I am still excited by the potential of Wireless@SG.
