Passpoint + Neutral Host Networks

In the race to meet exploding mobile data demand, one thing is becoming crystal clear: WiFi is no longer just a convenience—it’s critical infrastructure. And the combination of Passpoint technology and Neutral Host Networks (NHNs) is about to unlock new revenue opportunities for MSPs and ISPs sitting on a goldmine of idle WiFi capacity.

This isn’t a future trend. It’s happening now.

The Hidden Power of Passpoint

If you’ve ever walked into an airport or coffee shop and magically connected to WiFi without entering a password, you’ve already met Passpoint (also known as Hotspot 2.0). It’s a WiFi Alliance-certified protocol that automates and secures onboarding for mobile devices. No more splash pages. No more password fatigue.

What makes Passpoint powerful is what happens behind the scenes—it mimics the seamless connectivity experience of cellular. Instead of prompting users to select a network, their phones use SIM credentials or secure certificates to authenticate automatically. That means networks can prioritize privacy, speed, and scale.

What’s a Neutral Host Network—and Why Now?

A Neutral Host Network is infrastructure that supports multiple mobile carriers at once. It’s the opposite of exclusive. Think of it like a public transit system that any mobile operator can plug into, instead of each one needing to build their own tracks.

For XNET Mobile, the NHN model is deployed using enterprise-grade WiFi 6 (and now 6E/7) access points, strategically placed in businesses, public venues, and commercial zones. These locations are already rich in foot traffic and often underserved by traditional cellular coverage.

The WiFi Offload Opportunity for MSPs & ISPs

Most managed service providers and internet service providers have already deployed high-quality access points in office buildings, schools, malls, or public venues. But beyond supporting their primary clients, these APs sit largely underutilized.

Here’s the unlock: with Passpoint and NHN integration, your WiFi deployments can do double-duty—offloading mobile data traffic from carriers like AT&T, T-Mobile, or MVNOs looking to extend indoor coverage without blowing their CapEx budgets.

You maintain control of your network. But now it earns.

Key Benefits for MSPs/ISPs:

• Monetize existing infrastructure: Get paid for the data offloaded by mobile carriers.

• Zero new installs required: Use your current WiFi 6+ hardware.

• No captive portals: Keep user experience frictionless and secure.

• No network risk: Carrier traffic is segmented—your clients stay isolated and safe.

Why XNET Mobile?

XNET Mobile’s Neutral Host Network was designed from the ground up to enable this transformation. Through partnerships with leading OEMs, integrators, and carrier networks, XNET delivers:

• ✅ Passpoint-ready provisioning

• ✅ Secure offload tunnels directly to mobile core networks

• ✅ Tools to onboard MSPs with no blockchain or crypto experience

We’re not here to disrupt MSPs—we’re here to help them unlock new value from what they’ve already built.

The Future Is Crowdsourced

As 5G deployments stall in indoor environments and CBRS gets carved up by large players, the fastest way to expand mobile coverage is to use what already exists. And the fastest way to do that at scale? Passpoint + NHN.

This isn’t theoretical. It’s not “Web3 someday.” Our network is running right now and has connected over 14 million users.

And the best part? It turns traditional service providers into infrastructure partners in one of the fastest-growing markets in telecom.

Final Thoughts

For MSPs and ISPs who want to stay ahead of the curve, the time to plug into neutral host infrastructure is now. The groundwork is laid, the demand is already knocking and the tech is proven with over 14 million devices already connecting to our network.

You’ve got the network. Let XNET help you maximize it’s potential.
