Objective: Every one of us can benefit from free internet. There will be a pilot project, whereby 10 Wi-Fi spots will be installed across the island. One in each district and one in Rodrigues. The most common Wi-Fi spots so far are, Mc Donald\u2019s (Port-Louis), Dias Pier (Caudan Waterfront) and Rose-Hill Transport.<\/p>\n<p>While they\u2019re busy making big plans, the University of Mauritius itself doesn\u2019t have a proper Wi-Fi system. We\u2019ve been told that they will soon implement the Wi-Fi system but how soon is now?<\/p>\n<p>We have assignments, research and so on to do, we can still get access to the internet in the library and in labs; but there\u2019s lot of waiting. But what will you do when all the labs are occupied and you have to wait like a really long time before you can use the computers in the library? What are we exactly suppose to do? Use Skype \u00a0for group assignment at home?<\/p>\n<p>I probably wouldn\u2019t have written this article if we didn\u2019t have the means to use Wi-Fi. But many of us own laptops, smart phones and tablets. But at some point, these gadgets become useless without an internet connection.<\/p>\n<p>We, the students will benefit a lot from the Wi-Fi, and we can get all our research\/group assignment done at the University itself. But how long do we have to wait?<br \/>\nIt wouldn\u2019t be so bad if the government think of us first, before implementing Wi-Fi spot across the island. But to be honest, I don\u2019t see it coming anytime soon.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>-Echdee<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mauritius Wi-Fi project was approved by the minister last July.
