Soon you can buy Wi-Fi data from street vendors - The Economic Times
Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DoT) has developed a mass market 'public data office' (PDO) tech solution priced under Rs 50,000 to deliver low-cost Wi-Fi solutions.
Armed with a PDO device, a kirana shop or a thelawallah can sell Wi-Fi data vouchers at denominations as low as Rs 10.
The service will be provided over a licence-free ISM (industrial, scientific and medical) band. C-DoT, a government-owned telecom research and development centre, will unveil its PDO solution on Friday.
