Wiera operates a broadband wireless network that spans the whole country with a major footprint in the capital city of Budapest, including highly visited venues such as Hotels, conference centers and gas stations.

WeRoam hotspots support the two most common methods for controlling access – username/password and SIM cards. Furthermore, its hotspots offer Web landing page and WISPr EAP-SIM interfaces for client software.

“With the rise in foreign investment & associated business travel in the region, Central European venues such as hotels & airports are more in demand”, commented WeRoam Sales Director Paul Harper. “WeRoam are pleased that Wiera have chosen to partner with us, to assist in our CEE strategy by implementing both SIM & IP WLAN roaming services across their estate.”

“The Hungarian market clearly follows the global trends – we experience the dynamic growth in the need and in the actual use of public wireless connectivity, which is fueled by the ever-increasing laptop (and WiFi-phone) penetration, and by the spread of mobile applications used by the dynamically growing mobile workforce. We are pleased to team with WeRoam and to extend our wireless service to their customers travelling to Hungary.”
