Universities to receive Wi-Fi boost through network upgrade Thailand’s Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation is working with the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission to upgrade the capacity of the ministry’s UniNet high-speed communication fibre network for the benefit of innovative R&D learning, writes Komsan Tortermvasana for the Bangkok Post. The agreement is aimed at enhancing the high-speed communication system for higher education institutions with free Wi-Fi through the UniNet network, which also connects with 100 other global education networks. The cooperation would also be beneficial to the government’s Universal Service Obligation (USO) programme meant to drive the country’s digital transformation.
