Now you can get local-call access to the Internet from
every major city in the world through SingNet Global Roam
service enabled through iPass! This is a cost-effective
solution for business travelers and telecommuters who
need to make multiple long-distance telephone calls to
access their home Internet accounts.
What do you need to use the service?
All you need is a SingNet account and the iPass connection software. This connection software has a very simple point-and-click interface that allows you to connect to a local access number from around the world in seconds. SingNet provides this to you at no additional cost. You maintain one account with SingNet, continue to use the web browser and e-mail
program of your choice, and always use the same user ID and password.
What are the benefits?
- Roaming charges are significantly less than long-distance charges
- Get better quality Internet connections with local calls
- Log into a local number from around the world with one account
- Gain access to all Internet services such as e-mail and WWW
- Receive only one bill for all Internet and roaming charges
How Does it Work?
iPass forms relationships with ISPs around the world that have the highest quality Internet access networks and that provide access in far reaching locations. iPass provides software to SingNet that enables these access networks to be available to you.
This software facilitates secure routing of user authentication requests over the Internet between SingNet and other providers.
When you travel outside of our regular service area,
you can dial into any of the worldwide iPass access
points using your iPass connection software. You will
log in with your standard user name and password (appending
@singnet.com.sg at the end of your user name, e.g. john@ISP.net).
Your authentication request will be encrypted and sent
over the Internet to your home provider's authentication
server. The server will check your information and send
an authorization response (or denial if appropriate)
back to the ISP you are dialing into so that you can
gain access to the Internet. This process takes about
five to ten seconds. iPass tracks the time you are connected
to enable your ISP to accurately bill you for the services
used.
