St. Louis downtown Wi-Fi network goes live

AT&T’s Wi-Fi network in downtown St. Louis is up and running. AT&T had initially planned a citywide Wi-Fi network, but could not get it done because the light poles on which the wireless access points are to be mounted, do not have electricity 24 hours a day. So they opted instead for a smaller, more focused network.

AT&T is almost finished deploying a municipal wireless network in Riverside, California which will be used for public access and municipal applications. The city is paying AT&T a fixed amount over five years for its own use of the network. Click here to read about AT&T’s Riverside network.
