The list of communities that have municipal WiFi deployments in progress is much lengthier; more lengthy still is the list of those communities that are currently exploring the viability of bringing in a municipal WiFi service provider partner, and those that offer some public WiFi presence in downtown districts. There are plenty of unanswered questions on whether municipal WiFi is viable and sustainable over the long term. The technology seems best suited for hotspots in public meeting places such as restaurant chains, coffee shops, malls and airports. For wireless public broadband access, mobile wireless (e.g., EV-DO) and WiMAX both seem superior, since they use higher-power infrastructure that supports longer ranges, meaning the service provider needs to deploy and maintain much less equipment. But for a number of reasons, municipal WiFi projects are a competitive threat in both residential and SMB services that competing carriers cannot afford to underestimate.
