FIKES - Staff Writer SAN MARCOS -- Experts on wireless Internet communications gathered at Cal State San Marcos on Friday to explain how cities can provide free "Wi-Fi" to their communities and how trains can do the same for riders. Their answer: Make safety and other government uses the first priority, then add public access as a secondary benefit, said the speakers at the San Diego North Wireless Summit. It's a controversial issue. Advocates say municipal Wi-Fi is a good marketing tool for cities and businesses, and for getting more of the public on the Internet. ... Private companies can't make a profit on Wi-Fi with a free, advertising-supported model alone, said speaker Jim Koberstein, regional sales director for Strix Systems, a builder of wireless Internet systems. But if cities become paying customers as "anchor tenants," it then becomes feasible to extend wireless to residential users. Koberstein and other speakers said companies could provide the public a basic free service, then offer higher-speed services for a fee.
