Hotel Industry Members Withdrawal FCC Wi-Fi Petition
2015-03-06 00:00:26| Wireless - Topix.net
On August 25, 2014, the American Hotel & Lodging Association, Marriott International, Inc., and Ryman Hospitality Properties filed a Petition before the FCC asking it to re-interpret Section 333 as permitting the operator of a Wi-Fi network to manage the use of Wi-Fi on its premises, even if doing so "may result in 'interference with or cause interference' to a Part 15 device being used by a guest on the operator's property." In the alternative, the Hotel Petition urged the Commission to commence a rulemaking proceeding to amend Part 15 to specify the interference to Part 15 devices that Section 333 prohibits.

FCC recommends Telcordia for number porting contract
2015-03-05 08:23:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The FCC has recommended awarding the contract for the US's number portability system to Telcordia, ending over 20 years of Neustar administering the service. The full commission still needs to approve the recommendation from the wireline competition bureau of the regulator. Neustar issued a statement saying the award procedure was "botched" and the regulator had "underestimated" everything for which the numbers database was needed. It also suggested there was a security risk handing the deal to Telcordia, a subsidiary of Sweden-based Ericsson, and that the switch to a new system would end up costly, after no proper evaluation of the associated costs. Neustar said it would continue "to raise important questions, and will review all its options".
