Google Fiber has gotten AT&T to say it will build a gigabit network in Austin. Time Warner Cable says it will give its Internet access customers "free" access to the Time Warner Cable public Wi-Fi network in Austin, Texas.
"TWC WiFi" is a citywide WiFi Hotspot network free to Time Warner Cable customers with "standard Internet" plans or above, as well as "business class" subscribers.
Prepaid access starting at $2.95 an hour will be available as well.
So far, you'd have to deem Google Fiber a success, as far as spurring ISPs to upgrade Internet access. One would suspect the impact has only begun.
