Ericsson brings carrier-grade Wi-Fi to mobile broadband

NEW DELHI: Telecom equipment maker Ericsson today announced its 3GPP compliant Wi-Fi network access, control and management solutions, which provides a better wi-fi experience.

"These enable mobile operators to easily incorporate Wi-Fi in their heterogeneous network strategy, while delivering a consistently high-performance user experience, even in high traffic areas," it said in a release.

A smooth and seamless integration of Wi-Fi access is an increasingly important part of any mobile broadband service. Most smartphone users have experienced the frustration of being automatically connected to a Wi-Fi network only to face a noticeably slower connection speed, it added.
