Free Singapore WiFi Access Extended to Three Years

Stuffed in: 2 Broadband
Following the announcement on 10 October 2006 by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong that Singapore will get to enjoy two years of free wireless broadband connections from January next year, the Infocomm Development Authority (IDA) today announced that the three Wireless@SG operators have extended this free offering to three years. Users can also begin to enjoy wireless connectivity from 1 Dec 2006, one month ahead of schedule at selected hotspots for a start.

The three operators supporting Wireless@SG - iCELL Network, QMax Communications and SingTel - will extend the free access period till December 2009.

To enjoy free Wi-Fi access, users can sign up with any of the three Wireless@SG network operators starting 1 December 2006 for the basic-tier subscription with surfing speeds of up to 512Kbps. This offer is open to all residents and visitors in Singapore, and users can sign up with any operator to access all the hotspots in Wireless@SG. By September 2007, the number of Wi-Fi hotspots in Singapore will increase by more than five-fold from 900 today to about 5,000.
