On Tuesday, Wireless Toronto (everybody's favourite community wireless group) held its very first Hacknight. In this new year, Wireless Toronto will be doing more than just setting up free wifi in public places; they're starting a series of group tech-project hacknight get-togethers. Beer, wires, routers, cordless drills...you get the idea. Tuesday was the first part of a grander project to build a wifi backpack: "We’re building a wifi backpack, which we’ve affectionately called the WiFi......

Earlier this month, a few volunteers from Wireless Toronto got together at the LinuxCaffe. Some people have heard how Toronto Hydro is rolling out free wireless access in the city core for 6 months, but Wireless Toronto has been offering free hotspots since May 2005. Armed with a wireless laptop, Torontoist tried out the service.......

In case you're sick of paying for coffee to get your daily Internet fix, and can't wait for Toronto Hydro's system, the good folks over at Wireless Toronto have created a free WiFi access point in Yonge-Dundas Square. If that's not enough, they've also been hard at work bringing up other new locations. Some notable recent additions include Dufferin Grove and Kensington Market. These and all other locations offer free wireless access, paid for......

Since the announcement of the Toronto Hydro Wireless Plan the folks at Wireless Toronto have been keeping a blog with all sorts of news and commentary on the plan, its effects, and how other cities have been dealing with......

TOist has written about the mess the big four carriers are making of WiFi in TO (and Canada) in the past, with a mixture of frustration and apathy. So it's nice to see that some locally-wired citizens, loosely known as Wireless Toronto, are getting together to discuss the idea of creating wireless community networks. They're specifically looking to Ile Sans Fils, a Montreal group that offers WiFi when you're in their radius. TOist had opportunity......
