Well, Grove Hall and Dudley Square, at any rate: $9.95 a month for wireless access, in the first phase of Tom Menino's citywide wireless effort.

What WiFi?

I live a fraction of a mile from both Dudley Square and Grove hall, but after the announcement, I've not been able to detect the announced wiFi.
What's the story?
We, the people, need info on this to be prepared to utilize the service. Without our being educated about this "blackbox", the plan shall not work.
Also, how does one intiate the connection and the service?
Apparently, from what I have seen and learned from others in the area who are interest in seeing the service work and grow.

Let me translate what my friend, Zumbe, was trying to say. We heard about the release of WiFi in Grove Hall and Dudley Square, but we are located in the area, less than a mile away, and cannot detect the network. Also, we are uniformed about the detection, signing on to, configuration, availability, and protocal of this network. In order for the service to work, the online community in the area must be brought on board and informed.
