Zylog Systems India has announced the launch of their Wi5 wireless internet service in the Chennai city.

The company said that this service launch has made Chennai the first Wi-Fi enabled city in the country.

They are using mesh network architecture to provide seamless wireless internet connectivity to their customers while travelling around the city.

At the moment they are providing the service in Besant Nagar, Adyar and parts of Ashok Nagar and T Nagar.

They are aiming to cover the entire city within the next 12-15 months. After that, the company aims to bring the same service to other metro cities in the country like Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bangalore and Kolkata.

Zylog spoke about Wi5: “This Wi-Fi connection will work through nodes, which will be installed across the city. This means you can access your internet anywhere in the city without the need of a router. One just needs to log in to the Wi5 website and you are online.â€

If anybody who fall within the coverage area just try this and post a review... no installation cost..... all we need is a wireless capable desktop or a laptop

Its mind blowing :clap: i spoke to a person in the WI5 by calling the toll free# and he says that the download speed would be around 200Kbps.....

Unfortunately it will take another 2 months :rofl:to get coverage in my area as per WI5 folk.....

waiting for it to check it out.......
 
^ the thread is already post long ago :P p.s it is available at some area only

but not support kottupuram and royapetach :| and some area ;)
 
I live in Adyar and I was given a free trial when they were testing the services. They're actually pretty good when you can get a signal, but there are quite a few places where you can barely pick up the Wi5 network. It certainly is worth it if you're covered or if you spend time in places that are covered.
