HotSpot 2.0 enables encryption and is designed to let customers automatically connect to and authenticate on the WiFi network.The trial will be conducted in several Shaw locations and will test, among other things, automatic and secure authentication for Shaw customers equipped with HotSpot 2.0 devices (e.g., smartphones and tablets).
