Roaming is Hot Topic of the Day

Roaming is Hot Topic of the Day 12/05/2003 01:54 PM
">Roaming is a key requirement for Wi-Fi to take off but this writer is clueless: She seems to think that Intel's Centrino marketing program has something to do with roaming when really it's just an advertising push. The focus of this story is on technical challenges to roaming but she's missing the main issue. The technical challenges are small compared to the need for service providers to make agreements with each other so that a subscription to one service lets users access virtually any available hot spot. With those deals in place, more customers are likely to sign up for susbscriptions. She also includes some shameless promotion of a company that does business with her publisher. She cites Zinio as a "chief" player in marketing value-added Wi-Fi services. It looks to me like Zinio reformats magazines so that they look nice on handheld devices. What on earth does that have to do with roaming?? What a poor example of journalism....

Fast Roaming Standard

Fast Roaming Standard 01/26/2004 01:57 PM
I wrote a short article for Infoworld about the proposal for a fast roaming task group: If the IEEE approves the request, which most involved think it will, a new standard will be hammered out to speed up hand-off. The current mechanism for hand-off in the 802.11 specification isn't fast enough to support voice calls or other multimedia applications. Today vendors have their own proprietary ways to speed up roaming but they hope to come up with a standard way to do it. Contrary to some earlier reports, Cisco told me that they are supportive of the effort. If the standard ends up being very different from the way Cisco currently handles roaming now, the company will support both the standard and its own technology. Hopefully the standards process will create an efficient and fast way to do hand-off. While writing a different story for Infoworld about voice over WLANs, I found that most of the proprietary ways to support fast hand-off weren,t totally ideal. An improved hand-off mechanism may encourage more voice over WLAN implementations....

Sprint PCS Keeps Roaming, Isn't Building

Sprint PCS Keeps Roaming, Isn't Building 07/16/2004 08:19 PM
Sprint PCS quietly sloughs off its own building plans?: This article notes that Sprint PCS said it would have access via 2,100 access points within a year. True. But they told me that 1,300 of those would be locations that they built out themselves. In this Wi-Fi Planet article linked above, the general manager of wireless LAN service for Sprint PCS -- not the person in this role last summer -- said, We are not deploying those ourselves. But that's not entirely accurate: they're building Truckstop.net locations via their managed services division, and then Truckstop.net is operating those locations and allowing Sprint PCS to roam on them. So they're not deploying, but they are building and supporting....

Wi-Fi to Cellular Roaming Stalled

Wi-Fi to Cellular Roaming Stalled 08/30/2004 09:56 AM

eWeek has an interesting article talking about the hurdles the new VoIP Wi-Fi and cellular-switching phones may have penetrating the market. Even though companies like Motorola are developing systems that allow cellphones to switch seamlessly to Wi-Fi, the thought is that the savings provided to corporate infrastructure might be moot as cellular rates continue to drop. Of course, the people who really want this service are regular consumers like you and me, even though we are probably going to be the last people to get it (it may be more realistic to cheer on Verizon and other carriers to offer high-speed cellular networks like EV-DO and EDGE).

But interestingly, hospitals may be the earliest adopters of the Wi-Fi/cellular switching phones, specifically because of the dangers cellular radios can cause to sensitive medical equipment. If the phones switch to Wi-Fi, they can control the power levels to be weaker and (presumably) safer.

Group Forms for GSM/Wi-Fi Roaming

Group Forms for GSM/Wi-Fi Roaming 09/03/2004 05:49 PM
A group of operators and vendors have formed a group to work out seamless roaming between GSM and Wi-Fi networks: The group hopes to develop a specification and work with standards organizations for a formal standard. The three big GSM operators in the United States, AT&T Wireless, Cingular, and T-Mobile are part of the group as are Motorola, Nokia, Siemens, and others. While the creation of a standard is a step in the right direction, there doesn't seem to be any mention on the group's Web site of any work toward backend billing and settlement between operators. The issue of arranging business deals between operators seems to be a more difficult hurdle than the technical issues of such roaming. Also, notably absent in the list of participants are many of the leading Wi-Fi operators. T-Mobile and British Telecom are part of the group but none of the other large Wi-Fi operators. It's always hard to tell when these groups pop up if they'll just fizzle away or actually accomplish what they set out to. There is certainly a need for work on Wi-Fi/cellular roaming so hopefully this group will be successful....
