Free Wireless Internet Network - WiFi

Get into the Hotzone...

Milwaukee was among the first cities in the United States to provide wireless Internet access in public spaces. Pere Marquette Park and Cathedral Square Park have been "freespots," or wireless access points for public use, since June 2003. Milwaukee Public Library also provides Internet service around all its libraries throughout the city.

The system is powered by an internet connection on the top of the Zeidler Municipal Building. From there a directional signal is sent to transceivers near both of the parks. Finally, wireless signals are beamed out over the parks for public use. You are now in the "hot zone".

The City of Milwaukee thanks the following downtown businesses for welcoming Milwaukee WiFi Network users into their warm establishments during the winter months:
