Why is wifi so expensive?
by kieranmullen February 24, 2006 2:14 PM PST
$20 per month? Why ? There are promo rates at cable at that. I can get verizon dsl Up to 3 Mbps/
768Kbps at $21.95 per month. $20 a month for broadband on my laptop in the park or at a coffee house is not worth it...

That off-cited factotum is for an offer that is available in only a few
markets. If I remember correctly, it is also introductory. The cost
of moderate speed DSL is usually about $40 per month, sometimes
higher. Introductory rates for three to six months may be lower,
but the ISPs make up for that with higher prices the rest of the
contract.
