Cost efficient solution allows testing of WiFi client software over multiple hotspots from anywhere in the world

Bern, Switzerland, 11 June, 2008 –Comfone today announces the recent launch of its WiFi remote test service to facilitate the testing and rollout of WiFi roaming services. The service enables operators and software suppliers to remotely test the inter-operability between WISPr client software and over 30 test hotspots located in a single location in Bern, Switzerland.

Major WiFi networks are present at Comfone’s test laboratory, including Orange France, BT Openzone, ATT, SoftBank and KPN. During testing the user controls which networks are active and can subsequently test different roaming scenarios. The service can also be used to monitor browser based login experience.

One of the first customers of the service, Whisher, on completion of successful testing, commented, "Thanks to Comfone's service we could verify the inter-operability of our software with over 30 networks within two days of testing and without having to leave our offices”, said David Douek, Head of Business Development Whisher.
