London getting Europe’s largest Wi-FI network for Olympics

Mobile network O2 is to provide free wi-fi access across the London boroughs of Chelsea, Westminster and Kensington as part of a roll out that aims to become Europe’s largest free wi-fi zone.

The wi-fi network will be provided through base stations attached to street equipment such as phone boxes and light poles. At least some of the network will be ready in time for the Olympics although it’s not known how much.
