Dove St update

As part of a longstanding commitment to Dove Street Action Group (DSAG), Bristol Wireless are developing a wireless network around the flats.

This work had been funded by UFI under the user journey project. There is still some infrastructure left to install, but the first two households have now been connected. Both are really pleased with their new connections and are looking forward to learning more about the internet. Neither household has been internet users in the past, so there is plenty to learn and explore for everyone. The project participants will be taking part in several weeks of structured training in their own homes.

Next step is to get everyone set up with email addresses, one family is keen to install and try out Skype so we will probably try that next week.

    Good news Sam. I too enjoy using Skype; it’s great to talk for free (as long as they’ve signed up to Skype too!) to family members around the world.
