UPC to expand Wi-Fi services, VoIP app in more markets
2013-09-16 15:53:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) UPC Netherlands plans to introduce shared Wi-Fi hotspots based on customers' home routers within a few weeks, the company said at IBC. The cable operator expects to complete tests of the service, started in Zutphen, yet this year. Customer broadband modems will provide shared access for all UPC subscribers. The test is looking at the customer experience with the service, as well as the extent of coverage provided and whether this can be enhanced with additional Wi-Fi equipment. UPC is starting the service in the Netherlands, but plans to offer Wi-Fi in all its European markets. Subscribers will also be able to gain access to the Wi-Fi network in other UPC countries. UPC also showed its Phone app at IBC. Launched first in Poland last year, the app supports low-cost VoIP telephony over 3G or Wi-Fi. Call prices are based on what the user pays at home, calling from the fixed line. UPC plans to soon introduce the app in Ireland as well. Also at IBC, UPC showed its Horizon set-top box. Announced at IBC two years ago, the box was first rolled out last year in the Netherlands, and has since expanded to Ireland, Germany and Switzerland. UPC and its partner Samsung showed all the associated equipment, including the gateway, remote control with keyboard and apps for the iPhone and iPad. Apps fro Android were not yet available.

CNCERT will also open a reporting channel for the public. If whitelisted companies are reported for violations, they will be removed from the list and could face a permanent ban. To support the effort, the ICT ministry has launched two platforms to identify bad apps: a public reporting platform for malware and an app store reporting platform. So far, 34 app stores have implemented regulator app reports and some 7 million apps have already been tested.
