Here is the coverage map for Google and Roke Telkom’s WiFi in Kampala

Roke Telkom and Google have ushered in WiFi in Kampala on a scale no other telecom has yet deployed. Even after our extensive guide to this new WiFi network, it seemed like some things were still lacking. Top on that list were the places and the actual coverage map for the Roke Stops. We know have them and we can show you where you will find this service. It should be noted that these access points (or Hotspots) have an outdoor range of about 100-150 m with no obstructions like buildings and trees.

Hotspot coverage can be as small as a single room with walls that block radio waves, or as large as many square kilometres achieved by using multiple overlapping access points. And, the latter is what Roke Telkom has deployed also known as a mesh WiFi network. Using Google’s interconnected fiber network, Roke Telkom is able to connect the hotspots and also send back the WiFi signal to Roke Telkom’s switch for proper authentication and billing. Roke was able to deploy a metro WiFi network made up of over 111 and some go as far as Kajjansi towards Entebbe.  You can check out the interactive map below and list of places below.
