In Muskoka in general, Internet options are limited. People have limited or no access.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The HPL Hotspots receive signals from Rogers cell towers and any portable devices can connect via Wi-Fi, said Manczak. Users who want to connect a desktop computer can do that via a USB cable.<\/p>\n<p>The devices were purchased with Capacity Grant funding provided by the Government of Ontario for libraries.  Throughout the year, the library will survey users of the HPL Hotspots to gather feedback and to determine the next steps in 2018. Depending on feedback and demand, the library may look to purchase more in the future, said Manczak.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Want to see more Huntsville news? <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/category\/news\/\" target=\"_blank\">Click here<\/a><\/span>!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!
