Use Of more then one computer with one Username (09.04.11)

Recently we have had several cases on customers being locked out of there accounts due to using one or more computers .

Using more than one computer is in breach of our terms https://www.leapwifi.com/terms.html .

A single user name can be shared ( not at the same time ) as long as customers log in with the same external wifi card . The same USB can be shared amongst several computers as it is the USB itself that is recognized by the Leap system.

What cannot be done is to use different computers with internal card. This will result in a lock out.

Leap Wireless and Iphone / Ipod Touch (27.05.10)

With the v3.0 and above firmware versions of the Apple firmware we note that the iphones hotspot login sheet causes some problems.

A fix for this is to install Boingo Mobile Wi-Fi for the app store (http://itunes.apple.com/app/boingo-mobile-wi-fi/id297596317?mt=8) this overrides the login sheet and will allow the user to connect to Leap Wireless , and then open Safari and enter the user name and password as normal.
