Located 150 miles west of Denver, the mountain atmosphere of Glenwood Springs sets the scene for times gone past, when gunslingers preferred slow communication of their exploits from other mountain towns. However, with the recent installation of the high speed comprehensive wireless network, Internet users can now stay informed by connecting to the CityNet HotZone with virtually any 802.11b compatible adapter.

Based on 802.11b technology, also known as Wi-Fi (wireless fidelity), customized air mesh routers tap into and direct the electromagnetic spectrum to provide high-speed wireless connectivity to the Internet for anyone in town; on the streets shopping, enjoying a hearty meal or chilling out in a hot spring. According to Shiv Mehra, the project’s lead engineer, the only associated challenge with this mile-high project was staying warm while installing the two access points necessary for full coverage in the downtown area.

“We are excited to partner with MacroConnect, a local systems integrator, on this project, as it allows us to expand our networks from Florida, Texas and California into the Colorado Rockies.” said Clif Parker, President of CityNet, LLC. “The expertise and complimentary strengths of these two companies brings a best-in-class wireless solution to Glenwood Springs.”
