Mysore - First wireless city in India?
Apparently, its true. Mysore now allows Wi-Fi access from anywhere within the city. It uses 802.11g standards, which cater for a theoretical speed of 54Mbps and has 3(?) stations within the city. At Rs.750 per month and a rate limit of 128 kbps on the end user, I think, is quite good for a start. But, we can expect scalability issues to crop in as soon as the consumer base (100 in total now)increases. Maybe they will switch to 802.11a then? I wouldn't mind trying it but I have major concerns about coverage. 2.4 GHz, I think, is not ideal for WANs and MANs.
