iPassConnect (V3.5) for Windows

Unique Features

• Available Networks
  iPassConnect can automatically detect local broadband networks and makes it easy for you to connect to them. The Available Networks listing in your Phonebook can display accessible Ethernet, WLAN and Mobile Data networks.
  
  
• Phonebook Connections
  You can quickly search the Phonebook for access points in your area by geographic vicinity, or by phone number. iPassConnect displays the available access points connection type, so you can choose the one you want to connect to.
  
  
• Auto-Detection
  If your computer is equipped with the proper hardware, iPassConnect will automatically detect and display Ethernet connections, local WLAN hotspots, and Mobile Data wireless networks. Auto detection is also sometimes referred to as sniffing.
  
  
• Automatic Update
  iPassConnect will automatically check at periodic intervals to see if there are any software and Phonebook updates available. If so, you may be prompted to download and install the update. You can also choose to defer an update for up to 15 days. At the end of that time, iPassConnect will automatically update.
  
  
• Bookmarks
  The Bookmarks menu conveniently allows you to save and re-use connection information for the access points you connect to most frequently.
  
  
• Launching Programs after Connecting
  You can configure iPassConnect to launch other programs automatically after connecting to the iPass network. For example, you can launch your Web browser or other programs, such as your email client, by adding them to the launch list.
  
  
• Smart Redial
  By using the Smart Redial feature with dial-up connections, iPassConnect will automatically continue dialing all access points within the same city until a successful connection is made.
  
  
• Busy Number Redial
  This feature, used for dial-up connections, allows you to configure iPassConnect to retry a busy access point if a connection attempt fails. This feature is useful when using a bookmarked access point, or when roaming in areas where there are few access points and heavy Internet traffic.
  
  
• Wireless Auto-Connect
  If enabled, the Wireless Auto-connect feature enables you to automatically make WLAN connections to a list of preferred wireless access points, without repeatedly signing in. Auto-connect is typically used for a set of hotspots on a local campus where WLAN connectivity is widespread. Users could rove from place to place on the campus and will stay connected through wireless access without repeated logins. When Auto-Connect is enabled for multiple networks, iPassConnect will attempt to connect to access points listed in the Phonebook first, and then any personal networks, in order of signal strength.
