ERF Wireless Acquires 802DSL Wireless Broadband Network; Acquisition to Provide Strategic Wireless Broadband Footprint Near Houston.

LEAGUE CITY, Texas -- ERF Wireless (OTCBB:ERFW), a leading provider of enterprise-class wireless broadband products and services, announced today that it has successfully completed the acquisition of all of the assets of the 802DSL Wireless Broadband Network (802DSL), strategically located in an area northwest of the Houston metropolitan area. The 802DSL acquisition includes all of the current customers and equipment on the network, as well as multiple transmission towers strategically located in, and providing access to, a geographic area in central Texas covering approximately 10,000 square miles.

Several of the transmission towers utilized by 802DSL were purchased by ERF Wireless as the result of bankruptcy proceedings from a third-party company and, therefore, the overall terms of the transaction with 802DSL were not disclosed. However, ERF Wireless indicated that the strategic location of the 802DSL acquisition provides additional wireless broadband coverage for the company in geographic areas currently not served by, but bordering on, both existing and planned ERF Wireless broadband networks. In particular, the 802DSL coverage borders on some of the wireless broadband network coverage of the Enterprise Network Services subsidiary of ERF Wireless that provides encrypted high-speed wireless broadband networks for regional banks.

ERF Wireless additionally plans to utilize the 802DSL network facilities to expand its existing wireless Internet backbone distribution coverage. This will be accomplished through a conduit of transmission towers relaying wireless broadband bandwidth from the Internet backbone located in Houston out to many of the rural communities that ERF Wireless serves. ERF believes such a strategy is an essential part of its overall business plan of generating recurring revenue through the acquisition and/or construction of wireless broadband networks in many underserved parts of the country.

"The acquisition of the 802DSL network and towers provides ERF Wireless with a capability to wirelessly link some of our earlier acquisitions as well as some of those that we are still in the process of completing," commented R. Greg Smith, CEO of ERF Wireless. Smith went on to say, "Because of its strategic location adjacent to the Houston metropolitan area, 802DSL provides ERF with a strategic footprint that will be instrumental in moving our business plan ahead at an even faster pace. When combined with our recent financing and enterprise-class contract wins, this acquisition has us on track to meet our business plan objectives for this year."
