El Paso to offer free WiFi network
By Larry Hendrick | November 20, 2006
There are not a lot of details about this project, but it appears the city is installing equipment and is set to offer free Internet access to certain citizens in El Paso, Texas. I’m sure more information will be forth-coming. When I see it, I’ll share.

Downtown El Paso soon will be home to a free wireless Internet network. City and county officials say the WiFi network, which will also be available in parts of South El Paso, should be up and running in about 6 months. When it is complete, the network is expected to provide free Internet access to one of the poorest areas in the country, an El Paso neighborhood known as El Segundo Barrio. The project is being paid for by the city and county of El Paso, along with the city’s housing authority and the El Paso Independent School District.
