PKT Pal Announces Mini, the Open Mesh Wifi System that Pays Users

February 1, 2023
The Mini makes it easy to earn income from the internet. CASPER, WYOMING, February 01, 2023 – (SEAPRWire) – PKT Pal has announced the launch of its latest product, the Mini by PKT Pal. The Mini is an Open Mesh wifi system that enables users with high-quality internet to earn money by safely sharing online access. Each Mini includes a free Edge Extender antenna for expanding Open Mesh access. This product is ideal for both residential and commercial properties. “The Mini makes it easy for people to earn income from the internet they already pay for,” said Josh Berger, co-founder of PKT Pal. “This ushers in a new era to the gig economy.” Jesse Berger, PKT Pal co-founder and CEO added, “The Mini turns an internet expense into a revenue stream. It’s now possible for residents and business owners to safely share online access with neighbors, tenants or customers.” PKT Pal creates plug-and-play hardware and user-friendly software to help people around the world convert their internet into income, with security being a top priority. The Mini runs on the PkteerOS software, which has a user-friendly dashboard, tracks income, displays network stats, and includes a built-in VPN and digital PKT wallet. The PkteerOS has no license fee and can be securely paired to a computer or mobile device. The Mini earns revenue from PKT mining and wifi sharing. PKT mining generates income every minute the device is connected to the internet and not wifi sharing. Wifi sharing enables secure, password-free sharing of wifi through an Open Mesh system. When within range, “PKT Free Internet” will appear as an open network and offers free basic internet service. Providers get paid when users choose to pay a low weekly fee for streaming fast service. Caleb James DeLisle, PKT Pal co-founder said, “While there is so much bandwidth being wasted everyday, wifi sharing repurposes that bandwidth to provide internet access as a public utility. This helps make the internet accessible for everyone.” Unlike closed mesh systems such as Amazon Eero, Google Home and Ubiquiti, the Mini uses Open Mesh, VPN and captive portal so no password is needed. This ensures easy, available online access, with safe and secure data privacy using end-to-end encryption. The Mini offers Open Mesh coverage up to 1,000 sq. ft. Each Edge Extender further extends coverage by up to 1,000 feet. A Mini can daisy chain with five Edge Extenders to maximize wifi sharing range. The Mini costs $499, which includes 1 free Edge Extender ($150 value), unlimited wifi sharing, and a license to PkeerOS software. Only a $99 deposit is required to reserve a Mini today. The Mini begins shipping worldwide (with some exceptions) April 2023. To purchase a Mini, visit https://pktpal.com/mini.

AVIA Releases OTT Study in Singapore at its First OTT Upfront Showcase Presenting Premium Content at its Best ACN Newswire

AVIA Releases OTT Study in Singapore at its First OTT Upfront Showcase Presenting Premium Content at its Best

September 12, 2022
Singapore, Sep 12, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - The Asia Video Industry Association (AVIA) has released a new research study entitled Premium OTT - Building its Rightful Place in the Digital Market, to understand the usage of different video services in Singapore and attitudes towards them. The independent research study conducted by Milieu Insight was unveiled to agencies, advertisers and brands at AVIA's first OTT Upfront Showcase where two of the region's top premium video services, iQIYI and Viu, presented previews and highlights of their upcoming slate of content to the audience at a closed-door event. The research shows that Premium OTT streaming services (OTT) are clearly differentiated from videos viewed on social media or video sharing sites. OTT was highly valued by consumers in Singapore for having the highest quality content. 58% of respondents indicated that they felt premium OTT services had high quality content, compared to only 36% for social media and video sharing services. Similarly, when asked which video services they generally felt captured the highest levels of attention while watching, 49% of respondents selected OTT streaming services, compared to only 35% who selected social media and video sharing services. Levels of engagement were also entirely different with 51% of people feeling immersed when watching OTT content as opposed to only 39% for social media & video sharing. Top emotions elicited when watching OTT were happiness and amusement whereas for social media and video sharing, the top emotion was "nothing". When looking at the impact of advertising, linear television remains the place where it is most noticed (76%) and ads are thought to be the highest quality (41%), although it is in social media where ads feel most intrusive (37%). Linear was again the winner when it came to prompting brand or product searches (25%) and prompting purchase (19%). Louis Boswell, CEO, AVIA, commented that this "Bodes well for the OTT industry. There is a clear link between linear television and OTT from a content perspective, and with more OTT services looking at advertising, I strongly suspect it is simply a matter of time before the effectiveness of ads on OTT matches that of linear television." Dinesh Ratnam, Country Manager, Singapore, Malaysia and Brunei, iQIYI International, commented, "AVIA's research further cements the rise of OTT and the appreciation for the premium content on OTT platforms. As the OTT industry continues evolving and becoming more accessible, its audience is also looking for more diverse content. With the global success of shows such as iQIYI's original costume drama Story of Yanxi Palace drawing a global audience larger than that of Game of Thrones, the rise of Asian content is also drawing in larger, more diverse audiences. We are thrilled to be a part of AVIA's inaugural OTT Upfront Showcase in Singapore and to have the opportunity to showcase our exciting slate to advertisers and partners."AVIA thanks its members Magnite, PubMatic, The Trade Desk, and Xandr for supporting the OTT Upfront Showcase and the same companies plus Index Exchange for supporting the research.

About the Premium OTT StudyThe study, Premium OTT - Building its Rightful Place in the Digital Market, was conducted in Singapore by Milieu Insight Pte Ltd, with online fieldwork using Milieu Insight's online panel. The sample size was n=1200 and was representative of the Singapore adult population aged 16+. Premium OTT Services listed in the study were as follows: Amazon Prime, Apple TV+, Disney+, HBO Go, iQIYI, meWATCH, Netflix, Singtel Cast, StarHub TV+, Viu and WeTV. Social Media and Video Sharing Services listed were: Daily Motion, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Telegram, TikTok, Twitter, Vimeo, WhatsApp and YouTube.

June 17, 2022
TOKYO, Jun 17, 2022 - (JCN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - NEC Australia, a wholly-owned subsidiary of NEC Corporation and a leading Australian ICT solutions and services firm, was selected to participate in Phase One of the Department of Regional New South Wales (DRNSW) Mobile Coverage Project (MCP) Active Sharing Partnership leveraging Open RAN technologies.The NSW Government's Active Sharing Partnership aims to improve mobile coverage where people live and work in rural and regional NSW. The key objectives of the Partnership are to establish fit-for-purpose commercial and delivery model solutions for active sharing, investigate the application of different technical and deployment scenarios, and deliver improved mobile coverage in regional NSW using active sharing solutions.The NSW Government has committed $300 million AUD from the Regional Digital Connectivity program for the Mobile Coverage Project to be delivered across multiple stages. The Stage 1 - Mobile Coverage Project will invest $50 million AUD towards the Active Sharing Partnership's delivery. The Active Sharing Partnership is being delivered in two phases - Phase One (design) and Phase Two (delivery).Eight companies were selected following an RFP that closed in January this year for Phase One of the Active Sharing Partnership. In addition to Open RAN, other active sharing models are being trialed as part of Phase One, including MOCN (Multi-Operator Core Network), MORAN (Multi-Operator Radio Access Network), and Roaming. Under Phase One of the Active Sharing Partnership program, NEC and other key industry players, including MNOs, will collaborate to identify and design Open RAN-based active sharing solutions that could be implemented in Phase Two to address mobile blackspots across regional NSW.Successful participants from Phase One of the program may be invited to submit funding requests to implement active sharing solutions in Phase Two, expected to commence later in 2022. Results from the initial $50 million AUD investment will inform a broader rollout underpinned by the remaining $250 million AUD committed to the program by the NSW Government.
