Progress Report
I just wanted to give an update on our progress with the free public Wi-Fi project. As of June 23rd, 2023, we just completed a round of installations: Cazadero, Bodega, Bodega Bay, and an expansion in Guerneville with this pass. Still remaining are Monte Rio, Forestville and Jenner, which will be completed in September along with adding Starlink with solar and battery backup to all installations.
Our mission is to provide free equitable access to the Internet. The three tenants to achieve this are: education, disaster preparedness, and economic development.
By including Starlink in our network, when there is no power, no cellular coverage, and no ground based network, our network will still operate.
Free public Wi-Fi locations in Sonoma County with the number of access points, which determines area of coverage.
In September, we will be installing 3 more rural unincorporated communities: Monte Rio, Jenner, and Forestville (the blue areas).
