Welcome to the Christchurch New Zealand Wireless Community Webpage

 

What is Community Wireless ?


Community Wireless is an umbrella organization - representing the needs of the emerging community networks

In short we represent a global dream... and it's out there. Happening. Right now.

Using 'off the shelf' and license-free Wireless LAN technology (802.11a.b.g) various groups and individuals are embracing bandwidth and content, and sharing it with their community.

  • Neighbourhood Groups and Local high-speed P2P Networking
  • Neighbourhood Watch/Surveillance using X10 devices
  • Community game servers
  • Connectivity to Rural/remote sites, previously limited by cables.
  • High speed Video Conferencing
  • High speed Mobile content
  • Localised 'Open Access' TV and Radio stations (streaming audio/video)

The list goes on! It may seem like hot air, but it is very real.

It's the Organic Internet. The Internet re-born. The Internet the way it should be;

  • Free from the restrictions of 'Corporate' thinking, and Revenue strategies.
  • Free from 'profit over performance'.
  • Run by the users, for the users.



And all it takes, is like-minded individuals and groups to open up their Network and spare bandwidth, to anyone and everyone.
