June 25, 2010 at 14:41Free Wi-Fi hotspots! for all CSO subscribers!
Ukrtelecom continues to "comb" before the sale, and after a very recent sensational gift with unlimited 3G Internet, he decided to please us with a few more goodies.
Not so long ago, in April, it was announced that another 1,000 access points would be added to existing 1200 Wi-Fi points. Mostly these are Ukrtelecom branches, hotels, educational institutions and other public places. The list is extensive , but it is good if these points are connected 7/24. In my experience, I had to ask to turn on wi-fi, and then a clumsy woman (operator of a communication center) turned off the kettle and turned on the access point. And such a home.
But now about the pleasant.
In early July, in the CSO tariff management section! the “Wi-Fi Contract” menu will appear, which will allow, as far as I know, using the existing adsl username and password to log into the existing CSO point! Wi-Fi and use the Internet for free in the amount of up to 10 gigabytes (I hope this is the monthly limit). For users who are not subscribers of the company, hourly cards will be provided for access to the service, or it will be possible to conclude an agreement on unlimited wi-fi for only 50 UAH per month.
This news is already outdated, but I want to note that for all tariff plans, the previously installed fixed upload will be unlimited in speed and generally depend on your line. If earlier, as a subscriber with a 1 Mbit tariff, I had to be content with a transfer speed of 256 Kbit / s, now there is a chance that the speeds will equal. To do this, you need to update your port profile on the PBX.
They also promise a number of innovations in IP-telephony, but it’s better to probably wait for the official press release, since according to the statements of UT employees there will be a great opportunity to call anywhere in the world to a specific IP number for 5 kopecks per minute. How this will differ from skype at the same time I still do not understand, maybe one of the hawkers in the know.
