CommunityWoonsocket Wi-Fi
The
Woonsocket Community and Events Center has expanded its central role in
connecting community residents and visitors. Santel Communications
recently installed a Public Wi-Fi system that provides free Wi-Fi.
According
to Woonsocket Schools Superintendent, Dr. Rod Weber, “The school’s
remote and eLearning platforms require the student’s reliable access to
the Internet. It is important for the school to work with families and
community to provide connectivity they need to continue learning through
varied pandemic conditions and restrictions. Santel approached the
school on ways to help and within a short amount of time, free public
Wi-Fi was implemented.”
The community center now has Wi-Fi
coverage inside and outside the building. The students and public are
invited to use and access Internet for their needs. General Manager Ryan
Thompson of Santel states, “Our enhanced Wi-Fi systems allow expanded
coverage in an area commonly used by the community for many different
events and gatherings. If more stringent social distancing is required,
we felt it was important to offer students and residents outdoor ‘drive
up’ Internet as well. Drive up, park, connect. Easy, safe and
convenient.”
Internet-connected device users should select the
community center Wi-Fi access point on their device and with no password
required the system allows up to a 2-hour session of free Wi-Fi
internet.
