The Community WiFi Hotspots initiative undertaken by the Commission under its Universal Service Provision programme provides free hotspot wireless internet access at selected locations that are within a three-kilometre radius of the PIKs, by using a hub and spoke approach. The WiFi coverage for each spoke is up to 250 meters and the internet speed for each hub and spoke is up to 4Mbps.
As of 2020, there are 743 Community WiFi hotspots established nationwide. The total distribution of Community WiFi hotspots by state and Federal Territory is as shown in Table 1.
