WIFI - Next Generation Wireless Pakistan: In Pakistan, high-speed internet infrastructure has already been laid out with leading ISP’s providing Broadband and DSL services to our 1.5 million+ speed-hungry internet users. So far, only 6% of the market has been penetrated. Long way to go however, this figure has more than tripled in the last 4 years. We have already passed the initial stages of IT Development with bandwidth cost-cutting, state-of-the-art software houses making internet much more affordable than before. With the country accelerating towards the growth phase, it is safe to assume today’s young graduates are much more computer literate than before. With more and more people now connected to the internet jungle, universities, coffee shops and café’s have no option but to provide internet hotspots around the city… and for FREE! Our leading cellphone providers now offer GPRS services at affordable rates thus saving time and money and making our work-force more efficient. In the news: Pakistan, apparently is planning the largest mobile WiMax network rollout with Wateen Telecom providing the bucks & Motorola providing its expertise. With speeds of upto 75MB/Sec, Blackberrys and GPRS-enabled phones are sure to reach peak demands.
Result: Accessible, Affordable, Efficient … A by-product of competitive sustainable economic growth. Lets welcome Pakistan to the WIFI World. You can also convert your home into a wifi-spot. All you need is a wireless card (most laptops have built-in ones) + wireless router and a DSL/Broadband connection. Wireless routers are available for Rs5000 & up at any computer shop. It works best with DSL (available at Rs1250/- and up) and Broadband connections (packages starting from Rs 750/- & up).
