To build a digitally inclusive society and to empower citizens of India, ACT Fibernet undertook multiple initiatives across different parts of the country in the last year. The company installed 4300+ Wi-Fi hotspots across Hyderabad, Chennai, and Bangalore. These hotspots, powered by ACT SmartFiber technology, are located across hospitals, bus stops, malls, public libraries, parks, and schools. Over the last year, ACT Fibernet saw the success of these projects, as the hotspots registered a total of over 1.4 million unique users, who consumed an average of 1.8 GB data each.

On the occasion of World Wi-Fi Day, Bala Malladi, CEO, ACT Fibernet said: “Today, we are at a stage where digital technologies are increasingly the heart of everyday interactions. So, having limited access to technology often results in limited access to basic needs and services. As a result, solving digital disparity is more important than before. At ACT Fibernet, this has always been important to us, and we are happy to contribute to bridging the digital divide through our Wi-Fi hotspots.”

Across all ACT Fibernet Wi-Fi hotspots, existing customers of ACT Fibernet, when they login with their ACT credentials, get their current home plan broadband speeds. For example, If ACT Fibernet users have 100 Mbps plan speed at home, they will get 100 Mbps speed at these WiFi hotspots too. Guest users have to login through the ACT Free Wi-Fi portal with their phone number and OTP and can use free internet for 45 mins at 40 Mbps speed and 1 GB data limit without any cost.
