What competition does wireless internet currently have?
There is currently serious competition with the advancement of 3G wireless technologies and wireless broadband is now competing in the mobile marketplace against mobile broadband services that are beginning to cover larger areas and becoming faster. The freedom offered by the wireless internet access is far greater than fixed-line broadband but you are still limited to the coverage area of your router or the wireless hotspot you are using, which compared to mobile broadband is far more limiting. For mobile broadband users this limitation does not apply because they access the internet using the provider’s mobile phone network and so as long as they are within their coverage area they can get online from wherever they want. The introduction of more wireless internet hotspots has, however, helped to reduce this and users are now finding it far easier to find somewhere to access their wireless internet when they are travelling around the country.
