Nomadix Issued Key Patent for HotSpot Home Page Redirection Technology

Nomadix, Inc. announced it has been issued a patent by the U.S. Patent Office for its proprietary systems and methods for online Home Page Redirection on wired and wireless networks. Nomadix' Patent No. 6,636,894 B1, "Systems and Methods for Redirecting User Having Transparent Computer Access to a Network Using a Gateway Device Having Redirection Capability," describes the system and methods that enable a portable computer user logging into a Public- access network, or a Wi-Fi HotSpot, to be automatically redirected to the venue owner or service provider's home page. This redirection takes place regardless of the host computer's settings and without altering the user's browser settings.

"Nomadix believes that receiving a patent on redirection technology, which is so fundamentally essential to the success of the rapidly growing Wi-Fi market, reinforces our leadership position in the industry," said Joel Short, co-founder, senior vice president and chief technology officer of Nomadix. "The functionality contained in this patent is an important component in the deployment of any Public-access network. Home Page Redirection technology is critical to the HotSpot business model, because it instantly redirects potential customers to a venue owner or service provider's Web site, allowing them to conveniently sign up for the service."
