Hi team,
Can someone help me out here..
Our training centre is often booked by people who runs their workshop and trainings (inside the centre). Just recently a group from different ministries run their workshop in our building (training centre) and they come up with this fabulous idea which I think it will be a huge advantage to our organisation.
They said that we should establish a hotspot (inside the training centre building) because most of them (facilitators or participants for example) would want to their check their email from time to time during their training.
I look after our IT in place and I told my boss that it is a good idea but I have to think on how I am going to achieve this. I told my boss that we will establish a hotspot inside training centre (building), sortta like an internet cafe or something like that.
Right next to the training centre is our office where all the staff are located and we are using a modem (RTA1025WE) to access our internet and networks (via local ISP). However if you go inside the training centre they can see our wireless SSID but ofcourse they can’t access it because of security key – unless we told them the key.
The question is if we give them the access key to use our internet it would be a problem – they’ll probably use most of our broadband/usages and this is not safe.
So I am thinking how am I going to do this. One way is – to set up their internet is by accessing our internet/modem but they have to pay. for example they would come and ask the office for a access login code to access internet and what it is is there will be prices for different hours – this is depending on how long they want to use the internet for…….eg. $6.00 for 30 minutes, $9.00 for an hour and so on (just like in the cafe).
The question is what sort of software which I can recommend to my boss so we can purchase to accommodate us in this manner so each time when people or different groups wanting to use our training centre at least they know they can use or pay for internet. This came out in the last meeting which was brought to our office by the ministries after using our training centre.
I hope I explain myself clearly here. I appreciate any help or comment.
God bless guys
