Cox Communications has launched more than 130 WiFi hotspots in the Oklahoma City metro area, including Oklahoma City, Edmond, Midwest City, Norman and Yukon with additional hotspots scheduled to come in early 2017. The hotspots are located in high-traffic areas like Automobile Alley, Bricktown, Campus Corner in Norman and various parks and gathering places throughout the surrounding metro area.
"As residents and visitors alike enjoy holiday events and shopping, Cox hotspots will help people stay connected to the devices and content that matter most," said Kristin Peck, Cox vice president of public affairs. "Whether it's finding a restaurant, tracking down a gift or staying connected with friends and family - Cox's internet service extends far beyond the home."
Cox now has more than 20,000 WiFi hotspots nationwide. In addition, Cox's collaboration with other cable providers, called CableWiFi, offers Cox customers access to more than 500,000 hotspots across the country. Cox WiFi and CableWiFi are free for Cox customers with Connect2Compete, Preferred, Premiere, Ultimate or G1GABLAST Internet packages.
"WiFi plays an important role in keeping people mobilized," said Kristin Peck. "By adding these additional hotspots, Cox is able to deliver reliable high-speed Internet service to our customers in their homes and on the go. Cox is committed to providing solutions not only for today but also for the future."
