All-in-One Wireless Hotspot Gateway
The 4ipnet HSG-series all-in-one wireless hotspot gateway is a solution that caters primarily to SMBs such as coffee shops and restaurants. Compared to its bigger sibling the WHG-series gateway-controller, the HSG has many of the key WHG functionality – such as captive portal authentication, user policy enforcement, and guest Wi-Fi – built-in to the form factor of an access point. The compact solution helps to significantly reduce deployment costs for small coverage locations without sacrificing management capabilities.
Seamless Ticket Printer Integration
By integrating 4ipnet’s HSG and WTG ticket printer, restaurants and coffee shops can quickly generate Wi-Fi accounts for their paying customers at the press of a button. The login credentials and usage quotas are directly shown on the ticket, while QR-code functionality allows users to automatically authenticate without having to manually enter the username and password in the captive portal.
Value-added Free Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi has become a valuable source of customer information for many businesses and values offering free Wi-Fi. By collecting customer information from customized login pages or social media platforms, businesses can better understand their customers and engage them with more effective targeted marketing. Additionally, enterprise-grade Wi-Fi allows businesses to enhance their network security in the face of new governmental regulations, while simultaneously gaining better control over how customers are using their Wi-Fi network.
