WISPr Authentication

WISPr Wireless Internet Service Provider Roaming. The WISPr framework enables the client devices to roam between the wireless hotspots using different ISPs. authentication allows the smart clients to authenticate on the network when they roam between WISP Wireless Internet Service Provider. WISP allows subscribers to connect to a server at designated hotspots using a wireless connection such as Wi-Fi. This type of ISP offers broadband service and allows subscriber computers called stations, to access the Internet and the web from anywhere within the zone of coverage provided by the server antenna, usually a region with a radius of several kilometers. even if the wireless hotspot Hotspot refers to a WLAN node that provides Internet connection and virtual private network (VPN) access from a given location.

Configuring WISPr Authentication

Instant supports the following smart clients:

iPass

Boingo

These smart clients enable client authentication and roaming between hotspots Hotspot refers to a WLAN node that provides Internet connection and virtual private network (VPN) access from a given location. A business traveler, for example, with a laptop equipped for Wi-Fi can look up a local hotspot, contact it, and get connected through its network to reach the Internet. by embedding iPass Generic Interface Specification redirect, authentication, and logoff messages within HTML messages that are sent to the Instant AP.
