(but just for RDS clients)
A few days ago, I noticed a WiFi access point at Eroilor station. I took out my mobile phone and scanned for wireless networks, and much to my surprise I discovered 2 networks called Digi-Eroilor-1 and Digi-Eroilor-2 (or something like that). When I tried to connect, the first page announced me that the service was only available to RDS landline and Wireless Internet subscribers.
I haven’t got a chance to test the connection, but it’s still a nice touch. I’m guessing it’s kind of a replacement for 3G services, that Vodafone and Orange are providing in the metro, but I haven’t been able to find an official announcement or anything of the kind.
So, has someone else seen these networks, and if yes, where?
I saw RDS WiFi at Victoriei, Romana and Constantin Brancoveanu subway stations as well.
The service was announced in June 2011 (see http://www.rcs-rds.ro/comunicat?id=247). More information (including a map) at http://www.rcs-rds.ro/digi-wifi.
