McDonald's has announced it will roll out the largest network of free wireless internet in Australia, in partnership with Telstra.
It will offer free wi-fi in 720 restaurants across Australia by March next year, with Queensland internet hotspots launching from late December onwards.

Wireless internet hotspots had previously been available in many McDonald's restaurants for a fee, and McDonald's chief information officer Henry Shiner said regular visitors who log on for an hour a week could save up to $728 per year with the free service.

"Many of our customers are looking to access the internet on the move," he said, and the service would allow them to connect their wireless-enabled laptop computers, mobile phones, games consoles or personal digital assistants for free.

The hotspots will use Telstra's Next IP network, launched last year.

The company's rollout to Queensland restaurants is expected to be completed by late January.”
