Hi,
Thank you for your comment!

How do I go about getting Wi-fi connected to our Senior Citizens Hall in Stawell. The council own the property and there is a phone line connected which they pay for. We have line dancing and singing groups that need to have music down loaded and members have been using their own mobile phones and data to do this for the club however it is using their own personal data up. I did check with council and was told they do not intend to extend the free wi-fi out of the shopping area as it was for tourists. Our club is situated only a couple of hundred metres, at the most, from the shopping area.
Hoping you can steer me in the right direction.
