fon, a company funded by google inc. and ebay inc. to promote free wireless internet access, will start selling routers for $5 to encourage consumers to share their web connections with others.

consumers buying the routers, which usually cost about $60, will need to let others use their internet connections and in return will be able to connect for free to other wireless hot spots that are part of the network, said juergen urbanski, madrid-based fon's u.s. general manager.
