Free WiFi service is now available at Whitesville Park Thanks to Broadlinc, an Owen County-based provider of high-speed internet. This internet connection is available to all park visitors.
Broadlinc has connected several park buildings to create a robust WiFi network, with each building acting as a WiFi access point.
Mayor Patsy Mayfield expressed excitement about the free WiFi service in the park, emphasizing its significance for the community.
“This is a wonderful initiative that Broadlinc has brought to Whitesville Park,” Mayfield said. “It demonstrates their commitment to the community and will undoubtedly enhance the park experience for visitors. We encourage everyone to take advantage of this valuable resource.”
Broadlinc’s cable modems and wireless mesh access points ensure an internet speed of up to 200 MBps. Additionally, to prioritize user privacy and security, all wireless clients are entirely isolated from one another.
“When connecting to the free Wi-Fi, users establish an encrypted connection between their devices and the internet, ensuring their data remains confidential and inaccessible to others sharing the network. Broadlinc continuously monitors network security to safeguard against any malicious activities that could potentially disrupt the network’s capacity,” according to a release from the company.
“Our mission at Broadlinc is to advance the digital well-being of our local community,” said VP of Operations TJ Scott. “By providing free Wi-Fi coverage at Whitesville Park, we are taking significant strides towards achieving this goal. We anticipate that introducing Wi-Fi will enhance park events and foster greater connectivity among park visitors.”
This project at Whitesville Park is just one of many initiatives by Broadlinc to foster digital empowerment within the communities they serve.
