WLAN Roaming Clearing
 

WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) or Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) services are a set of standards for WLAN currently based on the IEEE 802.11 specifications. Wi-Fi radios are used on a variety of wireless devices for Internet access. Wi-Fi enables a person with a wireless-enabled device to connect to the Internet when in proximity of an access point called a hotspot. The WLAN arena is developing into an extremely competitive market. Mobile operators, hotspot owners, and Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs) need to generate new revenue streams. In order to provide a ubiquitous environment for Wi-Fi subscribers, roaming is needed between Wi-Fi operators.

BSG’s WLAN Roaming Service provides a cost-effective and reliable method for Wi-Fi operators to manage their Wi-Fi roaming agreements.
