Metro recently began offering free wireless internet service on a few of its buses to see how it works.
The pilot program, lasting about 60 days, involves Wi-Fi availability on 20 of Metro's 400 buses as they move through the metro area through different conditions and with varying numbers of passengers.
Passengers on such buses should select the network option on their smartphone or laptop and choose Metro Wi-Fi.
Riders can provide feedback by texting Metro customer service at 314-207-9786 from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays.
Alas, MetroLink Wi-Fi isn't part of the pilot project. Metro has been looking at Wi-Fi for the light rail line on and off for the past decade.
