Hanaro Tests VoWLAN Phones

By Glenn Fleishman

South Korea’s second-largest broadband provider is testing Wi-Fi phones: The company will spend the next month testing the service with a commercial roll-out next year. Wi-FI phones make a heck of a lot more sense in South Korea, a smaller country than the U.S. with a more densely packed population and vastly more hotspots per capita.

Meru Shows Off Voice Capabilities

By Nancy Gohring

Meru demonstrated voice over WLAN at a showcase in Kista, Sweden: In collaboration with OptiMobile, Meru also demonstrated a seamless handoff between GSM and Wi-Fi networks. I couldn’t find any mention on the OptiMobile Website of UMA or any of the other GSM/Wi-Fi convergence initiatives so it’s unclear if OptiMobile uses fully proprietary technology or whether it intends to follow one of the standardization processes.

Vonage Trialing Voice Over Wi-Fi Offering

By Nancy Gohring

Vonage is reportedly trying Linksys access points that could be used with Wi-Fi handsets for voice over Wi-Fi: Recent reports also have some Vonage customers trialing Wi-Fi handsets. Vonage could be planning to start selling a whole package that would include the AP and the handset so its customers could use voice over IP calling over Wi-Fi in their homes or offices.

Vonage once had an agreement with Boingo to test out voice over Wi-Fi in hotspots. Allowing customers to use their handsets in public hotspots is a more difficult offering because the operator would have to enable authentication.
