OneCommunity, a nonprofit ultra-broadband provider; Case Western Reserve University; Cisco Systems; and other partners paid $1 million to create the wireless network, or "cloud," that will cover a small section of University Circle in two weeks and expand to a 5-square-mile area during the next few months.
