WMATA has added 24 new stations to the original six that were given free Wi-Fi service.
Some rare good news for Metro riders: WMATA just announced that Wi-Fi is now available at 30 Metro stations.
It represents an expansion of 24 stations from the original six: Metro Center, Gallery Place, L'Enfant Plaza, Judiciary Square, Union Station, and Archives.
"All remaining underground stations will have Wi-Fi by mid-2018," according to a WMATA statement. "Metro's Wi-Fi amenity supplements existing cellular service, which is already available at all Metro stations. Wireless voice and data service is also available in underground tunnel segments on the Red Line from Glenmont to Silver Spring and on the Orange, Silver and Blue lines from Metro Center to Stadium-Armory."
