How Do I connect
Traditional Wired Network Connection
- Phone or cable lines are dropped behind walls throughout
homes and office buildings.
- These lines are connected to ISP network lines that are
run over street poles or under streets.
- Computers are connected to these networks using phone,
DSL, and Cable modems.
- The cost of implementing wired DSL and Cable network
infrastructure is so expensive that traditional ISPs are
unwilling to provide access to areas that they deem
unprofitable.
Home and Public Hotspots
- To free users from the limitations of wired network
connections, businesses and residents have implemented Wi-Fi
access point routers (“Hotspots”) to provide wireless
access in offices, hotels, restaurants, store-fronts,
and homes.
- These hotspots only provide short range access and they
are limited areas where the access point routers can be
connected to a wired network.
City Cellular Wi-Fi Network
- As opposed to adding access points to a wired network,
the cellular Wi-Fi network allows users to be truly
wireless at home, work, or play.
- Users require Wi-Fi-ready computer equipment and,
depending on their location, may require a Wi-Fi repeater or
gain antenna.
- A wireless range extender works as a relay or network
repeater, picking up and reflecting Wi-Fi signals from a
network's base router or access point.
- High gain antennas Increase the range of your City's
cellular Wi-Fi network. Attach these high gain antennas to
your range extender or computer to increase both the
effective strength of the outgoing signals and the reception
sensitivity for incoming signals.
