Singapore to increase free public Wi-Fi speed
SINGAPORE - Surfing speeds on Singapore's free public Wi-Fi service Wireless@SG will be more than doubled to 5Mbps by year-end, as the government looks to the network as a key enabler of Singapore's smart nation vision.
The number of Wireless@SG hot spots will also be doubled to 20,000 by 2018 to better complement telcos’ 4G networks in meeting consumers’ rising demand for mobile broadband.
"We must build first class infrastructure for pervasive, seamless and high speed connectivity to benefit citizens and businesses," said Dr Janil Puthucheary, Minister of State for Communications and Information, announcing the upgrades today in Parliament.
