Wi-Fi Hotspot News

A San Francisco cafe has just scrapped their Wi-Fi connection after years of Internet leachers nearly sent them bust. The cafe has now thrown their Wi-Fi router in the bin and rightly so...after all they've got a business to run. If a single person's there all day taking up an entire sofa / table, they're losing money. 

According to the LA Times, "They're finding that Wi-Fi freeloaders who camp out all day nursing a single cup of coffee are a drain on the bottom line".

We agree wholeheartedly with this but the solution isn't to scrap Wi-Fi completely. The solution is to control the connection so people can't just use the Internet all day without purchasing something.

For example, the average session time at a PolkaSpots Wi-Fi Hotspots is 43 minutes (which includes hotel usage). Just enough time for a coffee and a cake.

Controlling the Internet connection with a Wi-Fi service like PolkaSpots Supafly Wi-Fi is simpler than you think. Maybe we should ship a box over to LA for this cafe to try.

There are numerous ways to control your Wi-Fi connection - you should call us for more details (020 7183 1471).

Alongside the magificent news from the PolkaSpots factory about being able to check who's using your PolkaSpots Free Wi-Fi Hotspot, we have some more for you...

You've been able to re-brand your own login pages with PolkaSpots since time began. Now you can host them yourself and change them as often as you want. A good plan.

Integrating the Wi-Fi Hotspot login screens with your own website means you have even more control over your Wi-Fi Hotspot Service. 

For more information, call 020 7183 1471 or email us!
