Can I get Santa Clara Metro_WiFi inside my home or office?
If residents or visitors are within the Santa Clara coverage area, they may be able to connect to the Santa Clara network, indoors, by simply finding and selecting the Metro_WiFi network ID. However, in many cases, distance from our access points and interference from walls and other devices can affect the ability to connect inside. Again, we strongly recommend that residents use an indoor WiFi booster,a.k.a. Wireless Bridge if they plan to use Metro_WiFi inside their home or office. There are a variety of products available to boost the WiFi signal. Residents can purchase those products at several local computer stores in Santa Clara. Be sure to tell the store sales person that you need a Booster or Bridge and not an access point. Let them know it is a device to strengthen the signal from the Metro_WiFi network, not an access oint (AP) to broadcast a private home network.
