Simplicity for Small Hot Spots
The Challenge:
In a small hot spot location such as a café, restaurant or book store, local technical support is limited or nonexistent However, the technical issues associated with maintaining broadband access, accounting and billing, and access point availability are identical to larger installations. Separate router, gateway, and access point equipment present additional expense and complexity. Hence, simplicity adds greatly to the afford ability of hot spot network equipment, and to consistent availability of Wi-Fi service at a small hot spot.
