What is the iPass global network?
The iPass global network provides easy dial-up access to the Internet
from more than 5,000 points of presence (POPs) in 150 countries around
the world. iPass enables this service by using the networks of top-tier
network access providers throughout the world, and through a unique
third-party Internet clearinghouse and settlement system. With one service,
individual and corporate users can access email, the web and corporate
data from anywhere in the world with a local telephone call, gaining
significant cost savings over solutions requiring internal modem banks
and long-distance or toll-free connection charges.
What does a customer need to use the roaming
service?
All the customer needs is the iPass client software, which has a point-and-click
interface and a listing of all iPass access numbers. It includes all
the scripts and properties associated with these numbers so he or she
does not have to re-configure their dialer.

How does the customer find the correct number
when he is ready to dial in?
We provide client software for the customer to install on your laptop.
They can get this from our Software Download web page. The iPass client
software provides a simple point-and-click interface that allows the
customer to select the country and city where he is. He will then get
a list of the available local access points. Just click on the number
of his choice and he will be connected in seconds.
How much does it cost to roam and how will
the customer get billed?
A customer can save 50-90% compared to long-distance and toll-free
calls when using our global Internet roaming service. Roaming fees are
on a "pay-per-use" basis and rates range by remote location.
The roaming service charges will be included in your monthly bill.
