This paper considers a scenario where a population of customers is spatially distributed in a region which is served by two wireless service providers that offer Internet Access via two non interfering technologies: one having a uniform coverage over the region (e.g. WAN), and the other, a limited coverage (e.g. WiFi "Hotspots"). The paper assumes that customers are equipped with "Dual mode" wireless communication devices that have the capability to select which among the available providers to use and introduces a stochastic geometric model for the locations of customers and providers' access points and a utility-based mechanism modeling how devices select among providers.
