Wireless Leiden now enables internet access for smartphones

Wireless Leiden have made their WiFi-network suitable for internet access by smartphones. No special settings are required anymore. This is especially of interest to visitors from abroad and tourists that usually have no Dutch provider. We expect that also many locals will use this service now that the costs of wireless internet are increasing. Wireless Leiden remains free of charge and no registration is required.

Nodes Lijtweg modified

The nodes at the Lijtweg, Oegstgeest have been modified. There is now an extra interlink in the direction of Kaag Lake and a couple of antennas for user access have been replaced.

Node SPKaag1 modernized

On July 9th Wireless Leiden has rebuilt the existing node "Kaag1" at Hoogenboom Botenverhuur on the Kaag Island according to the IRIS concept.

The revamp has been sponsored by Stichting Promotie Kaag (SPK) and the node has been renamed SPKaag1. There are lnks with SPKaag2 , Lijtweg and (planned) node KWVdeKaag (Kaagsociëteit).

Improved coverage at Societeit KWV De Kaag

To improve the wifi-coverage around Societeit KWV de Kaag we have installed an extra accesspoint at the Harbor Office.The next step will be to built a node at the tower. This will provide coverage especially at the ancoring location north of the Societeit and also enable links with the Wireless Leiden network.
