| BT Selects Quiconnect to Give Customers More Global Wi-Fi Access Quiconnect has been selected by BT to establish more wireless roaming interconnections, providing even greater Wi-Fi access for BT Openzone customers across the world. The partnership means that Quiconnect is now interlinking the BT Openzone network to other secure wireless broadband networks across the globe, operating an "interconnection hub". This will continue to increase the number of public hotspots that BT customers can access. The agreement has already resulted in Quiconnect establishing a live interconnection between BT and Kubi Wireless, Spain's leading wireless internet service provider. This will offer BT Openzone customers immediate access to over 250 hotspots in key locations, such as select Spanish airports, railway stations, hotels and conference centres throughout the country. In addition, Quiconnect will also soon bring online a number of hotspots operated by South African market leader, Internet Solutions, giving BT Openzone customers wireless connectivity in yet another continent. Quiconnect is able to consolidate all the connections for multiple bilateral agreements to provide technical and financial interconnectivity and clearinghouse services worldwide. As such, this systems integration service plays a key role in enabling any Wi-Fi user to have access to cost-effective IP-based data and voice services, worldwide and on multiple devices. For BT specifically, the agreement adds to the 8.500 UK and Ireland hotspots and over 30.000 global hotspots to which BT Openzone customers already have access. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
