Hedge POP! Park now includes public wi-fi hotspots thanks to the recently installed Mesh++ solar-powered wi-fi system. Visitors can now stay connected to the Internet on their laptop, smartphone, tablet, and other mobile devices while enjoying the amenities the park offers. The wi-fi equipment was configured and prepared by Anh Tran and Deonte Young (Information Technologies Department) and on-site installation assistance was provided by Jay Johnson, Michael Powell and Aaron Harrison (Public Works Department). To connect to the Hedge POP! Park’s public wi-fi hotspots, browse the list of available wireless options on your mobile device, and select SSID “Champaign_Connects” from the list of available networks then enter “Welcome!” as the password. Signage is posted in the park to share information about the free public hotspot to park visitors.
