Re: [WISPA] free public wifi

2013-04-12 Thread Paolo Di Francesco
Hi All

well I will not touch the legal aspect (here in Italy it's illegal but 
many municipalities are doing it. Anyway, technically there are some 
issues to consider:

1) how the users are going to get the credentials (e.g. if you provide 
on screen scredential, if you send them on the mobile phone, etc.). This 
usually impacts your costs
2) if your billing platform has a pay as you go for the accounts. This 
depends on which commercial/free solution you are adopting, some 
platforms do not even consider that you could give it for free and 
they charge accordingly to the number of accounts
3) what internet you are providing to end users: are you providing the 
full internet or just a filtered (e.g. no p2p) internet. Are you 
providing just email and facebook or you want also youtube/multimedia?
4) if you provide private or public IPs to the end users. Public IPs are 
precious nowadays
5) the service that the users expect. If they think it's the same stuff 
I have at home well at home you pay 20-30$/months so for sure a free 
(=paid with taxes of the municipality) connection means a lower level of 
service (speed, etc)
6) how many CONCURRENT users you think will connect which means 
bandwidth and hotspot density.
7) if the price includes also the maintenance. Who is going to pay when 
the service is not working? who is going to fix the devices?
8) who is going to give support if the user cannot log into the 
internet? are you considering your support guys?
9) are you going to give 24H internet or just 1H/day internet and for 
how many days?
10) who is going to pay the electrical power fees? are they giving you 
also the power to run the devices or you have to find your own power 
plug? (not so silly question belive me some people think microwaves work 
by magic)


On the business model: I would say, there are many models:

1) you want something they have (e.g. towers or places) and you trade
2) you are offering free internet for 1h and then you charge for extra 
hours per day
3) you want to advertise your service (e.g. fixed internet) and you do 
it for free

So at the bottom line, consider ALL the paranoid details and then add 
this and that to the overall cost. The bad surprises occur if you sign 
a contract and then you realize it was not detailed enough to provide 
the service

Then once you have the costs, figure out which one best fits for you and 
them

Just my 2 Euro cents :)

 There are a couple of ways to do it.

 You can provide it either by how much bandwidth you will be providing to
 the installation, or by how many concurrent users you will be providing
 service for.

 If they/you choose bandwidth system, I would charge what you would
 charge any other commercial account for that level of service, plus
 something on there for the upkeep.

 Concurrent users I would price based on XXX Kbps per user, on the same
 commercial structure. Based on what they/you expect the usage to be.

es-or-free-public-wifi-phenomenon-part-2

To stop WZC from doing this you can either turn it off or set it to only use
APs. To turn it off for once and all do a Start - Run and type in
services.msc. Once in the services display, scroll down to Wireless Zero
Configuration and right click on it to edit it. There, you'll want to turn
it off and set it Startup Type from Automatic to either Manual or disabled.

If you want to keep WZC around, you can stop it from using ad hoc networks
-- which isn't a bad idea anyway -- by clicking on the System Tray's
Wireless icon and heading to the Wireless Network Connection window. Once
there, click on Change advanced settings, and click on the Wireless
Network Tab in the Wireless Network Connection Properties window. From here,
click on the Advanced button and set it so that it will Access point
(infrastructure) networks only.

 Subject: [WISPA] Free Public WiFi

 I am embarrassed to ask here but I am going to anyway.

 I have some customers laptops that have been here lately with the Free
 Public WiFi ssid on them.  I know that this is a Microsoft screw up on
 the Zero Wireless Connections.  I have made the stations so that they
 can only connect to a AP in the future.  But the Free Public WiFi SSID
 still shows up on the systems even when the Wireless card is turned off.
 I have removed all preferred SSIDs and still nothing.  Any one know how
 to kill this out of a Win XP system. (without going to Linux)

The genius of that is indescribable.  

It's one thing to fight them off but to simply allow them access then to
mess with them.  Priceless.
