Wifi in Beijing
November 16, 2008
Trying to find out how much there is.
An endeavor somewhere between “discover the secrets of the Forbidden City” and “unlock the iPhone.”
Inscrutable, to say the least. Is there . . .
a) Widespread wifi, but only really in restaurants and cafes that cater to laowai ;
b) Citywide wifi within the Third Ring Road that sprung up for the Olympics (and now requires some sort of payment); or
c) Illusory promises of the same that will devolve in practice to one bar of signal everywhere?
Stay tuned.
