I have a friend who runs a large, free public-access wifi network in a park. The network requires no authentication. There is modest promotion of the availability of free-wifi. He’s looking to estimate the total number of visitors to the park from the number of unique clients he sees on his wifi network. Despite the fact that a significant proportion of visitors have their smartphone with them, only a certain percentage will appear on the network due to a variety of factors including phone settings and a user checking to see whether there’s wifi available.
What percentage of the total visitor number does the MCN brain trust think he will see on his network? Or maybe put another way, what percentage of the population looks for free wifi? -nik ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nik Honeysett | Chief Executive Officer BALBOA PARK ONLINE COLLABORATIVE M (805) 402-3326 P (619) 331-1974 E [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> 2131 Pan American Plaza, San Diego, CA 92101 A technology collaboration that connects audiences to art, culture and science. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
