YEREVAN. – Yerevan city hall and Orange Armenia will provide Wi-Fi
internet access in public transport, said Orange Armenia CEO Bruno
Duthoit.
He said that buses were equipped with Orange MyFi 3G/wi-fi modems to
have free Wi-Fi service. Head of transportation department of Yerevan
city hall Henrik Navasardyan said that passengers of several buses can
use Wi-Fi internet starting from today. The route selection was made
taking into account students’ use of transport.
The potential internet speed is 7.2 Mb/s. However tests showed that on
average 2-4 Mb/s is available in different parts of Yerevan. If it is
a success, Wi-Fi will be installed in all public transport.
