Sputnik Mission

Sputnik enables you to run public-access wireless networks of any size. You get the flexibility to provide free, paid, or advertising-supported Wi-Fi services under your own brand.

Our goal is to provide the easiest, most cost-effective, and most flexible technology for public-facing Wi-Fi network businesses.

Why call it Sputnik?

On October 4, 1957, the country formerly known as the U.S.S.R. launched the world’s first man-made satellite—Sputnik 1—from the Baikonur Kosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Stunned by the sudden dawn of the Space Age, the world listened spellbound as Sputnik I broadcast an eerie signal that was easily monitored by amateur radio receivers. (2007 marked Sputnik 1’s 50th Birthday!)

The beep heard 'round the world:  

At Sputnik we believe that the rapid spread of unlicensed wireless networking will mark a no less significant milestone in the history of human communication. We envision a world in which broadband wireless connectivity enables people to take for granted rich connections to email, the web, instant messaging and all other Internet services.
