Deploying A Social Wifi Sensor

By Johnny Ruhaul


To continue off from our last blog post and to respond to our customers questions yes all social wifi devices and hardware will connect on port 4 to your broadband router. Once you have successfully configured the wireless hotspot access point you will need to access the web interface. Either IP of 172.16.25.x should have been connected or released on your RF device if your connected to that social wifi router SSID. If not please look for your SSID and connect to it and make sure your device picks up a valid DHCP address from 172.16.25.x. Once your are on your valid social wifi network you will just log into the web ui.

The following information should be checked and documented for future support or if you DNS information or other network information has changed.

Connectsim still sells regular social WiFi or wi-fi enabled hardware & software packages but we tend to offer a better solution or offerings by bundling all of our packages into one. You can still purchase just a regular level 1 or entry social WiFi enabled hardware from us and we will support and or install it for our customers. Currently we are only shipping our products in Canada and in the USA. Our rates are all in usd currency and depending on stock levels and inventory our products may ship from our Toronto warehouse or our Las Vegas, Nevada office.

If you are having issues with the social wifi hardware you may need to reset it to catch the latest firmware. Here are the steps to do so

A wireless site survey will usually come with a report that shows the status and health of your wireless environment. It basically tells you how clean the air is in your environment. Far too many times have we've seen too many restaurants in the downtown area that can't simply use the 2.4Ghz spectrum because the downtown core of most cities are too crowded with RF noise.

To summarize our level 1 or bronze packaged social wifi hardware or routers are for small retail or restaurant establishments that will have up to 40 users with limited features. Level 2 or silver to gold packages include enterprise robust social wifi hardware sensors that come standard with content filtering and bandwidth restrictions.
