T-Mobile Opens to iPass

T-Mobile Opens to iPass 12/16/2003 11:22 AM
In its first distribution deal, T-Mobile will allow iPass access to its network of nearly 4,000 U.S. hotspots (also: read Nancy Gohring's print coverage): The arrangement has a few unique aspects. iPass typically charges a per-minute fee for dial-up, wired, and wireless access to its aggregated partner networks. With T-Mobile, they will charge their customers $9.99 for a 24-hour period, but an iPass customer, unlike a retail day-pass purchaser, can use any T-Mobile location in that 24-hour period for no additional charge. Also, unlike most venues as they appear in the iPassConnect 3 client software, which manages the account connection and policies (such as firewall and VPN enforcement), all T-Mobile HotSpot locations will be branded as such instead of by the venue's name alone. In an interview yesterday, VP and general manager of T-Mobile HotSpot Joe Sims said that the network currently comprised 3,900 locations, and was expanding by 35 new hotspots per day heading towards their currently announced contractual commitment of 4,700 hotspots. Ken Denman, iPass's CEO, said that the iPass network had about 1,550 U.S. Wi-Fi hotspots, and thousands more worldwide. This arrangement with T-Mobile brings iPass's total worldwide hotspot count accessible to its customers to about 10,000. T-Mobile's Sims said that security was one of the key factors that led them to partner first with iPass as T-Mobile gets ready to roll out 802.1X authentication through its hotspot locations. The iPassConnect software has support for 802.1X integration. This relationship continues to expand on the growing trend in the hotspot world to focus on business customers; this is the foundation of Cometa's approach, for instance. Sims said, "Our customers are enterprise users," but one might expect that the current pricing model ($6 per hour with a one-hour minimum or $10 per day) could explain that in part. Denman said that in the future, other models were possible other than the $9.99 per day fee that iPass would charge based on what their corporate customers asked for to provide the most flexibility. T-Mobile had announced in spring 2003 a partnership with Boingo to develop a software platform for their network which would allow use of both T-Mobile's 2.5G (GPRS) and Wi-Fi networks. Sims confirmed that that software was still in development, but that it was only for the consumer and "pro-sumer" market. Sims said that T-Mobile would be announcing more partnerships in the coming weeks and months. "The question...

Deal

Behind the Scenes of iPass, T-Mobile
Deal 12/23/2003 02:17 PM
It seems that Ken Denman, CEO of iPass, and his good nature can take credit for the T-Mobile deal going through: Denman was around when iPass originally made a deal with MobileStar, then he watched MobileStar head to bankruptcy. But he managed to keep the doors open to making another deal with T-Mobile, which scooped up MobileStar. Apparently negotiations on the details of the T-Mobile deal were stalling but Denman got pulled in and both sides gave up ground to make it happen. IPass is in the midst of making a similar deal with Cometa, where Denman is equally respected. Not to add to the lovefest here, but Glenn and I talked to Denman a week or so ago about the T-Moble deal and we were impressed that Denman seems like a regular guy--he's not full of lame marketing-speak. He also seems to know what he's talking about--he's not just a smooth, figurehead CEO....

IPass for the Rest of Us

IPass for the Rest of Us 12/23/2003 02:18 PM
While iPass is a great option for heavy travelers whose companies have deals with iPass, individual travelers must look elsewhere for a Wi-Fi subscription that includes many hotspots: Global Broadband Internet Access members may offer a good option. Hotspot operators around the world are part of the group and as such offer roaming onto their networks. Most of the operators are in Europe, including The Cloud in the U.K. and a handful of operators in the Netherlands, but Surf and Sip is also part of the group. Currently there are 1,900 hotspots in the network but that number should grow to 2,500 by the end of January....

iPass Puts the LAN into WLAN

iPass Puts the LAN into WLAN 12/02/2003 01:22 PM
iPass to offer intra-LAN management for companies: iPass's iPassConnect client currently allows a firm to provide company-wide access to remote dial-up, wired, and wireless networks using the firm's own directory. The new iPass Wireless LAN Roaming service will let that company's IT department configure the client to connect to the local wireless LAN, too. In its first release, the software allows firm-wide support for a network name (SSID) and WEP key; this version is expected next quarter. WEP keys can be changed remotely by an IT manager. A later release will handle WPA and directly allow 802.1X authentication of users to iPass's system, which allows dynamic WEP or WPA keys to be assigned. In a briefing, iPass said that this extension to their service is in direct response to customer requests that would allow a single package with a single graphical interface and login to manage the entire wireless experience. iPass will offer this service as with its current offerings, direct to large firms and through resellers to other companies....
