comfort, room services and amenities, but also how advanced, modern, and modern IT infrastructure they have to operate the modern gadgets like laptop, kindle, smartphone, etc.

Hotels are also major venue to host various events, weddings, fundraisers, business meetings, workshops, and banquets. MICE is an important source of revenue, so it is crucial that a hotel has adequate WiFi reliability and strength to provide uninterrupted communication link.

Here are few questions which are answered to clarify the steps to be taken before installing WiFi in a property.

So, because of this vulnerability to surrounding environmental factors, a proper survey along with a proper system is necessary.

A typical WiFi setup includes: Routers connect to your internet service provider's network. Access points extend WiFi to guest

● rooms and public spaces.

● Switches join access points for a flawless internet connection.
