Minneapolis Unwired: Free access to the City
I'm not a USIW Wi-Fi subscriber but I can "see" four access nodes from my computer where I live and a couple have strong signals even without the Ruckus gateway device. I can select and connect but I end up at the USIW log-in page.
There are a couple of City of Minneapolis link on the log-in page. I clicked on one and ended up at the City's site. I was able to browse freely as long as I didn't attempt a link off the City's site. (When I clicked on the convention center link, I ended up back at the USIW login page.)
Hopefully this access will continue when the community portal arrives.
