New Legislation to bolster WIFI WIRELESS NEW (OTCMKTS:WFWL) sales
The legislation, originally pitched last summer, urges the FCC to test the feasibility of opening up spectrum at the higher end of the 5GHz band (5850-5925) for unlicensed Wi-Fi use. Cable and other tech companies are all for this, while automakers and their partners are opposed, citing possible interference with car safety systems they are becoming more mainstream.
The S.424 legislation comes courtesy of Senators Marco Rubio (R.-Fla.) and Cory Booker (D-NJ). U.S. Rep. Bob Latta (R-OH) put forth companion legislation, co-sponsored by Darrell Issa (R-CA), Anna Eshoo (D-CA), Doris Matsui (D-CA) and Suzan DelBene (D-WA).
Rubio stated: ““America’s policies must adapt to the colossal technological advancements that are defining the 21stcentury and transforming the very nature of the American economy. The Wi-Fi Innovation Act would bolster innovation, spur economic development, and increase connectivity by providing more spectrum to the public.
Two U.S. senators on Tuesday revived legislation that seeks to allocate more airwaves to public Wi-Fi by requiring regulators to quickly test how shared radio frequencies could coexist alongside those used for communications among smart cars.
The bill would direct the Federal Communications Commission to study how more spectrum can be freed up for public use without interfering with connected vehicles, which are incumbent users.
The Wi-Fi Innovation Act, which was previously introduced last year, had garnered widespread support from various makers of high-tech equipment, as well as the wireless and cable industries, which seek more connections to use for phone calls and data-guzzling gadgets.
“The result will transform 75 megahertz of currently moribund and lightly used spectrum into a powerhouse for American broadband,” Comcast’s Regulatory Policy Vice President David Don wrote about the bill in 2014.
WIFI WIRELESS NEW (OTCMKTS:WFWL) will commence a new WiFi Calling service on Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) iPhone starting in May 2015.
Wi-Fi Calling is the conventional name for a technology that allows cellular packets from your phone to be transferred to your carrier over the internet, and injected back into the cellular network as if they’d been beamed over the air.
Unlike services like Google Hangouts and Skype, which let you talk to other people using call forwarding or an internet-based interface, Wi-Fi Calling lets you use your actual carrier phone number over the internet. Wi-Fi Calling is also distinct from VoIP technology, which lets you use an internet-connected phone exactly as you would a landline. VoIP transfers your voice over the internet to the switched telephone network, whereas Wi-Fi Calling connects your voice to your mobile carrier’s network using the internet instead of cell towers.
Because most carriers already offer unlimited calling minutes on many plans, this isn’t necessarily a move that will save you money: instead, it makes it easier to use your phone by offering the best service even when you’re in an area that has poor cellular coverage.
But if saving money is what you’re after, this could make your cell phone a replacement for a landline (if you haven’t already gotten rid of that) when you’re at home and likely to have reliable Wi-Fi. On top of that, international travelers will find Wi-Fi calling a cost savings, too: If you have Wi-Fi, you can make calls home (or to any number of places in the U.S.) for free.
Sure, you can already make phone calls over Wi-Fi with apps like Skype, but these apps often only let you connect with another user on the same app or pay additional fees to call phone numbers — and they rarely work with your existing phone number. With Wi-Fi calling supported by your phone and your carrier, there are no apps to install or setup to worry about; you’ll be able to make free calls to any phone number using your existing phone number as long as you’re connected to Wi-Fi. And if you’re talking via your Wi-Fi network when you leave the house, the call will seamlessly switch to cellular.
WIFI WIRELESS NEW (OTCMKTS:WFWL), Ericsson (ADR) (NASDAQ:ERIC) Connecting Silicon Valley
WFWL is working with Ericsson (ADR) (NASDAQ:ERIC) to create a new world of WIFI.
WiFi Wireless Inc. has the power of Ericsson, Inc. Broadband and Media Accounts Division as the vendor to install and manage the WiFi My City network infrastructure program.
It has become more apparent that WiFi Wireless’s vision was on target and the communication analysts have caught on to the fact that cities have to be part of their own wireless communication infrastructure.
WiFi Wireless Inc. (WFWL) has been meeting with the planning commission of Milpitas, CA, orientating them on the WiFi My City program. WiFi believes that designing, building and operating a working WiFi Network in a city located in the Silicon Valley, with a population of nearly 70,000, such as Milpitas, would set a precedent going forward with other cities of similar size throughout the Country.
WFWL WiFi My City Plan brings much needed revenue back to Municipalities around the USA allowing them to provide TV, Telephone and Internet connectivity at a City level.
WIFI calling is of course the hot sector in the mix right now, WFWL will slash the cost of Cell Phone plans in the USA by allowing people to use WIFI calling instead of a traditional cell Phone carrier.
Mr. Gene Curcio, founder and chairman of WiFi Wireless, Inc., developed the vision and mission statement for the program. He then began to build the necessary partnerships to create a foundation for the future of Wi-Fi service. First, WiFi Wireless contributed an international switched based VoIP network with cloud facilities and encryption capabilities, the backbone needed to support the integrated network.
WiFi Wireless then turned to other contributors in an effort to add necessary expertise in a variety of fields to the venture. First to sign on, Abrams Wireless, Inc. is a wireless engineering firm with years of proven success in overseeing the design and construction of nationwide wireless infrastructure, also bringing aboard President and CEO Ted Abrams, inarguably one of the top experts in the field.
Dr. Jerry Icenhower P.E., Major General (ret), has agreed to work with WiFi Wireless to facilitate a large-scale veterans-based employment source for the instruction and training of an army of installers.
