Cox Comm. and Bright House Networks expand Wi-Fi access

ATLANTA USA: Cox Communications and Bright House Networks announced that most customers with high speed Internet service can now enjoy even more access to CableWiFi, the nation's largest WiFi network, made possible by a collaboration of cable companies. With the integration of Cox and Bright House Networks hotspots, customers may now access free WiFi in additional areas including Orlando, Tampa, Daytona, Northern Virginia, Connecticut and Indiana.

The new hotspots are strategically located to serve areas where customers are most likely to benefit from Internet access while away from home, such as restaurants, malls, sports arenas, parks and beaches, and join thousands of existing hotspot locations available in markets such as NYC, San Francisco, Boston, Washington D.C., Philadelphia and Chicago.

"Cox continues to extend our customers' access to WiFi hotspots across the country, delivering information and entertainment anytime, anywhere," said Kelly Williams, vice president, product strategy and management at Cox Communications. "We not only provide our customers access to more than 2,00,000 WiFi hotspots throughout the country, we also make it convenient and simple for customers to locate and log on to these hotspots."
