New Transnet Wireless kiosks connect Cape Cod travelers

Cape Cod travelers now are better connected thanks to Transnet Wireless, one of the nation’s top providers of wireless Internet kiosks. Transnet, through its local distributor, Masscot Wireless, has added three additional machines to its growing list of Wi-Fi hotspots, this time in the popular tourist destination of Cape Cod, Mass. Two area hotels and the “Café at the Airport” located in Hyannis' Barnstable Municipal Airport, Massachusetts’ third-busiest airport, now boast wireless Internet access – the demand for which is skyrocketing.

“ Securing presence at Barnstable Airport is a major step in making Transnet Wireless a significant provider on the cape.” said Brad Cartwright, Transnet Wireless president. “With Masscot’s aggressive marketing and expansion plans, we aim to become the premier Wi-Fi provider on the area.”

Transnet Wireless is establishing a national network of Wi-Fi Hot Spots through an innovative private local distributorship program in which the Hot Spot equipment is placed in locations at no cost to the location owner. The hardware, maintenance and monthly Internet connection fees are all paid for by the local distributor, who profits from usage fees. A percentage of the revenues are also shared with the location.

Masscot Wireless knew it was time for the area to go wireless when weekly community requests that began during the summer of 2003 turned quickly into daily inquiries. They first planned on opening an Internet café but decided to become a Transnet distributor because of Transnet’s comprehensive package and unparalleled business opportunity. Masscot Wireless plans on launching twelve Hot Spots by June of 2005.

Transnet Wireless Corporation, a member of The National Business Opportunity Bureau, is the national leader in the distribution of Wi-Fi Hot Spot Internet kiosks. Transnet is a member of the Airpath Provider Alliance, the global standard for comprehensive Wi-Fi roaming, with 600 providers operating more than 3,500 hotspots and counting in more than 23 countries. Transnet Wireless is a privately held corporation headquartered in Plantation, Fla.
