Marlborough Sounds broadband
I have been approached by a number of people in the Marlborough Sounds wanting a solution for fast internet access. Current broadband internet access in the Sounds does not provide good coverage due to the unique mountainous terrain, and is quite expensive in the few areas that access is possible.
At the moment a proposal is underway to enable this to happen by creating a community of wireless users in the Sounds in a similar fashion to the main project. The main objective is to share access to a single broadband connection between several homes from a point that has acceptable coverage.
As work progresses, I will post complete details and photos so show how the Marlborough Wireless Project can benefit the Marlborough community.
