Operator to turn street-side cable cabinets into hotspots and open up home routers for sharing bandwidth

Virgin is also preparing a major update to its home routers to allow customers to use each other’s wireless networks when they are in range. The change is expected to come with a free speed boost to encourage users to share their capacity, alongside assurances that the public network will be kept separate from their secure private connection.
