On the 4ipnet Wireless LAN Controller, WISPr or Wireless Internet Service Provider roaming - Pronounced "whisper," is a draft protocol submitted to the Wi-Fi Alliance that allows users to roam between wireless internet service providers, in a fashion similar to that used to allow cell phone users to roam between carriers.

This section introduces the Port Location Mapping feature. This feature is designed for creating multiple VLAN divisions (as if they were separate LAN ports) under a Service Zone and mapping these VLANs to different locations individually. This feature can be utilized to provide separate VLAN to separate clients in MTU/MDU deployments where a VLAN switch is deployed under the gateway to provide VLAN connection to individual rooms. The Port Location Mapping feature is also commonly used in hospitality venues to manage the internet service for their guest rooms and public areas. In addition it can operate in conjunction with third party hospitality applications and has been tested with the Net Retriever middleware which provides seamless integration between the gateway and the popular High Speed Internet Access (HSIA) hardware and Front Office System (FOS) software. Each Port Location Mapping entry can be configured to provide charged (single or multiple user), free or ...

Once upon a time, in a town with millions of mobile device uses, a café stood decades with its heavenly-taste coffee and royal customers. Despite its dedication to distinguish coffee-roasting skills, great service and fine tradition, the number of customer declined over the years. The café owner, David, couldn’t figure out why the business isn’t doing well. The shop has passed down generations to generations. His grandparents made a solid foundation and built its name in the town. His parents took the business to another peak and pass down the prestige to him. Troubled with questions and running out of ideas, he strolled down the city, looking for ways to spark his brain. With no destinations in mind, he found himself wondering in a park. He felt so doomed and pray to God and ask for a Christmas miracle. “Dear God, if you’re there. Please give me a sign! I’m so out of idea and in desperate need to save my business,” he said. He then hurried back to the shop and start searching ...
