Wi-Fi Moving To London

The service is expected to go live within the next few months and the entire city will be covered within six months, according to the network’s provider.

Londoners are a step closer to getting Wi-Fi.

The City of London Corporation is entering into a partnership with The Cloud, Europe’s largest Wi-Fi network operator to install and manage wireless broadband infrastructure in the city’s financial district.

The service is expected to go live within the next few months and the entire city will be covered within six months, according to an announcement this week from The Cloud. The company announced its plans to provide wireless hotspots in several cities last month, and now the organization that provides local government services to the Square Mile, Britain’s financial and commercial center, has signed on.
