ConnectAkron : Municipal wireless comes to the rubber city

Cleveland, take notes.
OneCommunity has a wireless network that encapsulates Downtown Akron, U of Akron’s expansive campus and much of the surrounding neighborhoods. Eventually, more neighborhoods will be served. More about the plan can be found here : http://connectakron.org/about/ .
I am using the connection now at my buddies’ house near the corner of E. Exchange and Sumner. 5 Mbit/s down and 4 Mbit/s up seems pretty darn good to me!
