Well, there are municipal WiFi deployments for some smaller towns and cities that I'd call a utility, but I am not convinced that is what the previous comment is referring to.

    Wtf is a municipal WiFi department? What do they provide, internet access? Or routers?

    Internet access to all of the residents in the town. It's one of those beach towns that is long and skinny (follows the coast) so they were able to set up wide range APs that let residents use the internet with their credentials.

    Interesting. My city has public WiFi in certain places, but I've never used it before so I have no idea how it works.

    The "public WiFi" used by a lot of cities is just standard commercial/enterprise APs, so it may not be the same thing anyway. Arguably, that makes a lot more sense to use in most cities than the more exotic wide area deployments. It is still cool that it exists.
