London Is Still World's Wi-Fi Access Point Capital
10/29/2008

ISP Review UK writes "The latest annual cell phone guard Survey from RSA has revealed that London is still the world's cellular phone network (Wi-Fi) capital, with a total of 12,276 access points detected, exceeding the number found in New York City by more than 3,000. However, the French capital of Paris broke all the records with a 543% year-over-year growth in the number of cell phone call up access points, which compares with London's 72% (down from 160% last year) and New York City's 45% (down from 49%). The survey also examined how many of the cell ring access points detected were secured with some form of encryption (hotspots excluded). In New York City, 97% of combined access points had encryption in place (76% last year). In Paris, 94% of pooled access points were encrypted — use 'although' in London, 20% of all office access points renew to be gladly unprotected."
