Abstract
Wireless Hotspots plays significant role in today’s working environment. Business as usual no longer involves working in a traditional workplace at set hours. Today’s workforce is more mobile and every day more people are working from virtual offices, client sites, home offices, coffee shops, airports, hotels, and any number of remote workplaces. In urban Areas, we can easily locate wireless Internet access with mobile device like notebook or handheld computer that supports the wireless LAN protocol known as Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi hotspots are becoming an increasingly common form of Internet access. Hotspots are considered a valuable productivity tool for business travellers and other frequent users of network services. Hotspots are convenient in providing internet access to the rural areas, but there are some usability and security problems. This paper examines various issues of Wi-Fi hotspots and their challenges in today’s wireless technology towards providing quality Internet service to rural communities.
