Sammendrag
The aim of the project has been to look at how the knowledge about statistics of use might influence the usage of a wireless network. The project has been conducted in cooperation with Wireless Trondheim. A public display was set up at a café that has the wireless network available. It showed different sorts of statistics collected from the network control system, in addition to news and advertisements. No significant increase in use was experienced during the period when the screen was up, and the project needs to be conducted in a larger scale to see more obvious results. However, the project has provided Wireless Trondheim with insight on how public displays can be used to increase the awareness and hence the usage of the wireless network.
