Why provide wireless access to your tenants and customers?
|
Wireless service is a unique product that will allow you to differentiate yourself in a competitive market for renters. High speed wireless Internet access will allow you to attract new tenants as well as to retain existing tenants, but only if your wireless network provides good coverage to every unit and is reliable and dependable.

Benefits of a Portless Wireless Installation
|
For the last ten years the founders of Portless have been providing network, computing, and security engineering and management directions for companies such as Intel, Sprint, UUNet, WebTrends, and NetIQ. They have the experience deploying wireless networks in these large corporate environments, and use this knowledge to ensure that you receive a quality installation and your tenants receive a robust and dependable Internet experience.
Portless has customized commodity hardware for these installations. Some of the benefits are:
Cost savings warranties, and the ability to expand and support your network(s) in the future.
Splash Page Portless can provide a custom splash page with terms of use for connecting tenants. You can customize this splash page as well, adding your business name, or other information you would like the users of your service to see.
Traffic Shaping to ensure one or two “power users” does not hog all the available bandwidth, robbing other tenants of their access.
Monitoring Our software allows us to remotely monitor your network and inform you of problems as they arise. In fact, we will often know there is a problem before you do!
Reports Portless technology will allow us to generate reports about how your wireless Internet network is being used, such as how many people are connected to your network, and what percent of the bandwidth is being used.
