The developer brains at Fring are back to work (well they always have been). This time they cracked the auto roaming feature. This is very handy for all Nokia fans who know how annonying it could be when you get out of Wifi Range.
I have a Nokia N95 and have been testing Wifi Signals around my house. It always disconnects me in the middle of a something when i am out of range. I am still not able to figure out a way to automate Wifi Switchover on Nokia N95. Anyone knows?
However it seems, Fring is reading my mind. Imagine, you travelling at the same time talking on Fring VOIP. At one stage you are out of your favorite Free Public Wifi network range, oops connection gone and you lost a important call? Now you have to find another network, Define a point. Now, never again with Fring.
fring now supports auto-roaming, switching between Wi-Fi and 3G networks (regardless of the provider) without any manual user involvement! It works because fring is now able to recognise, store and instantly access all Wi-Fi points you have used. In practice fring will automatically log you into a friendly Wi-Fi connection (one you've used before) when it is available. So whenever you walk into your favourite Wi-Fi café, fring will use their Wi-Fi access without you even asking for it. Where there is no Wi-Fi, fring will automatically revert back to the cellular network.
Now from today, I am going to whore around my daily walk area and find as many Free Wifi hotspots I can and define them as Access points and enjoy Free VOIP Calls with Fring.
The auto-roaming feature is currently supported on fring compatible Nokia devices although the service will be available on all phones very soon!
If you still haven't experienced the best mobile VOIP applications a.k.a Fring, you prolly can start today. Go Fringing!

whore around Vinay??? lol
i was just joking. However seriously there are loads of wifi connections around my house :-)
is their a speed limit for GPRS based calls? as i believe in India the GPRS speed is not that great, so how would it affect the voice quality? Also which phones can we use for fring or any other voip telephony apart from N95? I do have a wi fi connection(am in usa), but for making free calls i would like to have a voip phone in india which wont be on wi-fi but on gprs. please lemme know if its possible and what steps shall i take.
i guess it will help other users as well who might want to send a voip phone to their homes in India and call using internet connection...
Thanks buddy. you are doing a fab job.. for sure.. hats off..
Another thing that i wanted to ask was, cant we simply download Yahoo messenger or skype on our phones and simply use them for voice calling, this wouldnt really need voip right?? lemme know if that a possibility
