What are Wireless ISPs (WISPs)?..

Answer / rajendra gupta

One business that grew out of Wi-Fi was the Wireless ISP (WISP). This is the idea of selling an Internet access service using wireless LAN technology and a shared Internet connection in a public location designated a hot spot.

From a technical standpoint, access to the service is limited based on the transmission range of the WLAN technology. You have to be in the hot spot (i.e. within 100m of the access point) to use it. From a business standpoint, users either subscribe to a particular carrier's service for a monthly fee or access the service on a demand basis at a fee per hour. While the monthly fee basis is most cost effective, there are few intercarrier access arrangements so you have to be in a hot spot operated by your carrier in order to access your service.
