100.000 hotspots!

Monday, November 17th, 2008

You may already know that every time somebody connects to a hotspot using HandyWi we are registering this event in our database, the total count of HandyWi hotspots can be seen on the right side

bar of this blog (look for “hotspot count” widget). Last week we had our 100.000th WiFi hotspot registration!

This hotspot is called ATIM.IZI.FRAUNHOFER.DE and is located in Leipzig, Germany. To celebrate our 100.000th spot we will send this HandyWi user a free WiFi router (valued 40 Euro!)

BTOpenzone WiFi

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

BTOpenzone is UK largest WiFi operator, it recently announced lowering it’s WiFi tariffs and adding additional hotspots all over UK. HandyWi supports BTOpenzone WiFi network for a long time, however we only tried it the lab environment at WeRoam testing facility.

So we decided to send our test team to London this weekend and see ourselfs how BTOpenzone network is working together with HandyWi. We will try to use several access accounts including FON, BTOpenzone Global, iPass Connect and BTOpenzone per minute access. Our test report and impressions will be posted on this blog!
