How can Wireless City benefit business?

Out of the office no longer means out of touch, as Wireless Broadband allows you to experience the benefits of your high-speed broadband connection whilst away from your desk. According to a recent BT poll, 88% of business travellers believe it is important to have constant access to e-mail and the corporate IT network during working hours. The introduction of a city centre Wi-Fi network can help workers become more effective and efficient.

How do I use the Wireless City network and what will it cost me?

There are a number of different payment options to access the network. BT Openzone offers up a range of tariffs for UK or international use, depending on whether you're a regular user (e.g. an international business traveller) or an occasional user.
