We went on site today to complete the installation of our WiFi authentication portal, analytics engine, and site services to a local customer. In case you don’t already know, an access point (AP) is a hardware box that is used to create a wireless local area network (WLAN) by connecting to a wireless router (what you get from your internet service provider). AP’s allow users to roam around your facility without service interruptions and can also be used to track usage.
