It is not at all about the possibility of using open WiFi networks that can be found in public places which in practice is often only theoretical internet access, with the absence of logging in or entering the network. This access to data transmission on a 3G, LTE 4G network made available by the Aero2 operator of the company dealing with the construction of data transmission infrastructure.

Little Poles know about the Aero2 network and even more about the possibility of using free internet access and the company itself is like a little enigmatic and passing from “hand hands”. I tried to get information about what happened for 10 years of public services, but neither the Customer Service Office nor the spokesperson of Aero2 Marta Czapczyk for the circumstance of this anniversary were not willing to disclose information about the company. You can see the company has a lot to hide.

From 2009, Aero2 focused on the construction of the G3 HSPA + network (21Mbit / s) in the 5MHz band by selling its Internet sharing services for Cyfrowy Polsat. A year later, the Polish Electronic Communication office launched a 50 MHz band a spectrum fragment in a 2.6 GHz band for the construction of a LTE network. The value of the tender is 100 million PLN! The two options were a sugesite to win, the obligation to organize public free access to the Internet in Poland in the band below 1 GHz and the speed of the network construction in one and a half year to 50% of Poland’s coverage. None of the existing operators was interested in a tender by receiving him as weakening his own influences from the services offered. The Aero2 stood for the tender, the spell of this event will not know who the company forced and who has hampered. Aero2 the tender won and paid only PLN 20 million for the concession. Such concessions cost about PLN 200 million or PLN 180 million a fewer impact on the state budget. Poles love business. The project of public free internet sharing was launched in 2011 and was to be implemented for three years by 2014. He survived another 7 years to this day in the form of one of the services of a Aero2 commercial offer.

Free internet access is not attractive today as public WiFi. Data download speed is a maximum of 1Mbps (512 kbps), offers dynamic IP and every 60 minutes transmission is picked up so that the user has introduced the “Chapta” code.

This is also quite a free internet because you need to buy a SIM card directly from the operator by paying for her “deposit” 20 PLN and paying for courier shipment 14 PLN, unlike the SIM card. In total, we pay 34 PLN for access to free internet. Here you will wonder why SIM cards of other operators cost 5 PLN with access in every store offering cigarettes or with a shipment for the next 5 PLN?

Of course, when buying a SIM card, you must provide your personal data, it is required by the Polish act on surveillance of electronic communications.

Despite all, there is no doubts that this social solution is very valuable and it is worth proving to access the Internet without monitoring fees. Personally, I appreciate this idea. (Brux)
