Boingo Adds Russia to Worldwide Wi-Fi Network

11/19/2007 – Santa Monica-based wi-fi hotspot network operator Boingo Wireless has signed a roaming agreement with Golden Telecom, the leading provider of integrated communication and Internet services in Russia.  Through the agreement, Boingo will add Golden’s wi-fi network, which it claims is the largest metropolitan wireless network in the world, to the Boingo Roaming System for customers.

The deal marks Boingo’s first expansion into Russia.  The company says the network gives Boingo blanket coverage of Moscow through more than 7,500 wi-fi access points integrated into a single network.

Boingo was founded in 2001 by EarthLink and Helio founder Sky Dayton.
