The authorities need to understand that it is not just providing the service to the public. It also need to look into the maintenance of the infrastructure at the various hotspots.

I tried to connect at Tanjong Pagar Community Centre but access into the network was painful. I am sure the settings on my computer and handphone are correct. Problem could lie in wireless router. Approaching staff at the Community Center was of no use because there are no technical support staff there to look after the maintenance of the network.

I've already emailed to the authorities. Hopefully they respond and fix the problem. (less info)
