By Ernest The Kremslehner Hotel in Vienna offers outdoor Wi-Fi connectivity in central Vienna. Literally two blocks away, my phone picked up their login portal when I didn't even notice that there was even a hotel nearby (I find it especially hard to distinguish one monument from another!) The Hotel's login page was customized to allow their guests and visitors to gain internet access while strolling through downtown Vienna.  An innovative and smart way of business management, allowing the possibility to contact hotel staff in case of an emergency or  perhaps a need to re-book a room for an extra overnight stay. From the login information displayed, it seems that all guests and visitor may obtain a username and password at the hotel's reception upon check in. Next time I'll consider an overnight stay while evaluating their indoor wireless connectivity ; ) The Kremslehner Hotel in Vienna

The  efficiency   of Wi-Fi  connectivity has completely  convinced  me to turn off my 3G roaming  service , as it is very expensive and I was already over my traveling budget.  Cafe Hawelka 's login portal is an example of how local Hotspots are offering free Wi-Fi services for all tourists and locals passing by. Their intent of offering free Wi-Fi doesn't not minimize the  opportunity  to make money, but opens doors for anxious social-media starving tourists looking to update their social media and  publi...

Included for channel analysis is a spectrogram, density graph and other charts to detect interference from Bluetooth devices, Microwave devices, Cordless phones, and etc. Figure 1: Shows real-time channel density in two forms The Spectrogram Plot This real-time spectrogram plot shows channel cleanness by color coding from blue to red. Once starting to scan the environment, administrators should see the colorful ‘canvas’ slice by slice. In fact, each vertical slice is piled up by collected samples in each 50-100ms interval. The upper the samples, the newer they are.   Interpretation of the graph is rather straightforward: if a channel ‘slice’ shows more pan-blue colors, it means that it has less Wi-Fi signal transmitted to and fro over the air.     Fi...
