Denver Wi-Fi usage surges after switch to free access, report says

“Denver International Airport … offers something every airport should offer: fast, free Wi-Fi.” That’s from Computer World’s “The World is My Office” blog by Mike Elgan. Elgan writes “the airport threw a switch about a month ago, and transformed its for-pay airport-wide Wi-Fi into a free, advertiser-supported service.” After the switch, he says “overnight, without promotion,” Denver’s Wi-Fi usage “increased tenfold.” For those looking for more airport Web options, Elgan writes things are “looking up” as “major airports (succeed) with free, airport-wide Wi-Fi.” And, as for Denver, he notes the airport is installing one of the newest and fastest Wi-Fi networks currently available. “Now if only airports would add more electrical outlets,” Elgan says.
