The move could create blanket urban wi-fi coverage, and allow the fixed-line operator to compete at least partially with mobile phone operators in offering internet services on the go.
“It is a potentially disruptive move. BT may see this as an opportunity to get into the mobile market through the back door,” said Ben Wood, analyst at CCS Insight.
At present most people mainly use wi-fi to connect their laptop computers to the internet, without wires, in their homes or offices.
Is this the future of extensive distributed wi-fi?
