June 4, 2007 - Corpus Christi residents, visitors and businesses now have access to one of the safest, most secure Wi-Fi networks in the world, with EarthLink’s (NASDAQ:ELNK) Municipal Networks business unit completing the transition of the City’s existing network to EarthLink’s wireless mesh network architecture.

Beginning today, customers can access the ISP’s Wi-Fi services by paying an occasional use fee for hourly or daily service or a monthly subscription fee providing unlimited usage.

EarthLink brings Corpus Christi residents a ‘landline free’ way to access the Internet throughout the 55 square mile network. Consumers who sign up for EarthLink Wi-FiSM will enjoy download and upload speeds up to 1 Mbps for a limited time promotional rate of $6.95 a month for the first six months, returning to the recurring rate of $19.95 a month thereafter. For consumers that want even more speed, EarthLink is offering an “extreme” product at 3 Mbps download and 1 Mbps upload service for only $9.95 for the first six months, returning to the recurring rate of $21.95 a month thereafter.
