      Connect to WIFI in Downtown Exeter

      The Exeter BIA has announced an amazing partnership with Hay Communications, and The Municipality of South Huron to bring FREE WIFI from the intersections of James Street to Sanders Street.

      This will help make the downtown more enjoyable for everyone and allow people to share pictures of the town instantly.

      In a press release BIA Chair, Tira Wootton said “The Exeter BIA is extremely excited and grateful to be partnering with Hay Communications, Municipality of South Huron and numerous downtown property owners to offer free WIFI to the downtown core. Being able to offer this service will allow visitors and residents to access business and town information without the issues of personal data usage, making the shopping and tourist experience seamless. Just another benefit of shopping local.”

      “Hay Communications is happy to do our part in bringing to life a local project that offers free WiFi connectivity to the downtown core of Exeter. We think it will broaden a visitors’ experience by creating awareness of all the amazing local shops and establishments.
      Casually walking down Main Street checking out each shop can be pleasant. However, if you are looking for a specific type of shop or service, quick access to the Experience Exeter website through our Wifi network can point you in the right direction quickly.”
