About Krosno Municipality
Krosno, today ranked 6th for quality of living in Poland, has a population of 50,000. Back in 2004, town officials sought to provide broadband to city schools, in order to prioritise an e-education initiative. However, since the incumbent operator providing limited ADSL services to parts of the town could not guarantee speeds or Quality of Service (QoS), the municipality decided to build its own network, using funds allocated by the European Community through the ZPORR (Regional Innovation Strategy and Knowledge Transfer) organisation.
