I wwould think FON is preferable because one can "roam" globally.</p> Raindeer, can you please compare and contrast eduroam and FON from the point of view of service objective.

This technology allows you to share your wireless access point with others in a manner that can be controlled. People need to authorize and basically get access to a separate VLAN through your home wifi-access point. This way they might reach even higher densities without too much trouble. </p> <p>Same goes ofcourse for the entire world. Think of Customer premises equipment with this build in standard. Every new customer becomes a basestation. You can encourage people to use this by allowing them to make free (or small fee) use if they share their basestation with others.</p> What I wonder is why they don’t make use of 802.1X technology like the people from Eduroam (www.eduroam.nl).
