Wireless community networks (WCNs), also known as wireless community projects or community networks, are decentralized, collaborative networks self-managed and self-organized locally by communities, non-governmental organizations, and cooperatives tooffer consumers a viable alternative to municipal wireless networks.
Wireless networks occasionally support total freedom from censorship, which may conflict with the proper usage guidelines of some commonly used commercial services. Many businesses create wireless mesh networks that share unmetered residential and commercial cable and DSL Internet. The terms of service of regional internet service providers (ISPs) that offer their services through the duopoly of consumer phones and the line may not permit this kind of usage. -
