Hi <br>
<br>
Why that could be a good selling point, it is also something that
would be something to explore after the fiber is deployed, and it
has its own management challenges. <br>
<br>
What the fiber would do would be the transit backbone for wireless
access points, but managing it as "part of" the fiber rollout might
divert energy, dilute the idea, and take what time we have to get
this done. <br>
<br>
Not saying its not possible, or not desirable, its just its own
major project. Though it sounds great, WiFi has "issues" especially
when you add more access points, it just piles interference on.
It's tricky. <br>
<br>
And Instaconnect already does WiFi thats free right?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
RAN<br>

<div>I saw some mention of this in the archives somewhere but have
we talked about this since? I think providing free wifi could
provide an immediate and much appreciated return on investment.
Also a very good selling point. </div>

<div>It occurs to me that these apartment complexes might be
great opportunities for early deployment. They're going to
have a very high connection density, making for rapid

<div>I believe that in South Korea, a common mechanism for
apartment buildings is to take fiber to the apartment
buildings then use a very high-speed, short-distance
version of DSL to use twisted pair to apartment buildings.
I wonder if that's feasible here. I'd love to find a way
to make big apartment complexes early supporters of this
project.</div>

<br>
Met with the UCD Director of Communications Resources,
the Director of the Network Operations Center, and 3 of
the senior network operations staff.<br>
<br>
They are good with the project, and have offered to
"help" The form this help could come in, would be coming
to City council,<br>
Volunteering to do an outreach event, and
interconnecting with us on completion of course.<br>
<br>
If anyone else can think of other ways they might be
able to "help" let us know.<br>
<br>
So cautiously optimistic that a major instituational
partner for this<br>
would be "on board"<br>
