Welcome
DFWFreeNet is a community built, owned and operated free wireless network in the Dallas / Ft. Worth (Texas, USA) area. Founded in 2006, we are a not for profit co-op with the mission of helping to bridge the Digital Divide, providing free wireless Internet access to those where it’s not economically feasible. DFWFreeNet depends on the efforts of volunteers and sponsoring businesses of the community. You can help by setting up a free WiFi hotspot.

Contribute
 | DFWFreeNet is building a free wireless network with the goal of addressing the Digital Divide and we need your help. As a member of the community, you can help DFWFreeNet grow by setting up a Free WiFi Hotspot. If you have a broadband Internet connection, you can share your bandwidth or if you don't have a broadband Internet connection, you may still be able help by extending the network. If you are a business or property owner (cafe, bakery, restaurant, bar, laundromat, hotel, apartment complex, conference center, etc.), DFWFreeNet volunteers will install a wireless network at no cost, just purchase the equipment and supply a broadband Internet connection. You'll attract new customers that stay longer and save hundreds in installation, equipment, supplies and labor costs compared to having a commercial company install a wireless network. If you already provide free wireless Internet or already have a wireless network, you are welcome to join DFWFreeNet by replacing or supplementing your existing access point(s) with DFWFreeNet wireless gateways and repeaters. By combining our efforts, you'll become part of a larger wireless initiative, gain additional exposure and be helping to build a unified and robust wireless network across the Dallas / Ft. Worth area. Send us an e-mail at the address below for more information. |
