network of wireless hotspots

I am posting this without doing anything silly like asking for some context just because I feel like guessing.

What is being sold? Is is really cellphones or is it just the opportunity to get one's wireless device near something that can send to / from it?

A wireless hotspot is often in a cafe or a public place. салон связи is not a bad translation, but I would feel surer with more context
Peer comment(s):

disagree Yulian Tissen : "салон связи" is a cell phone shop/store. I'm not sure there's a Russian term for "hotspot" yet, though I've seen WiFi spots in Moscow.

I believe you. But "salon" is too genteel a wword for my experience with cell phone shops ;-)

cellular phone chain

Соглашусь, что "chain" широко используется (опять же, во всяком случае, в Штатах).
