Targets smaller hotspots and hotels


24online, a product of Elitecore Technologies Pvt Ltd., which offers comprehensive wired and wireless (Wi-Fi) billing & bandwidth management solutions for ISPs & the Hospitality sector, today launched its new solution - 24online HIA 15wi that offers secured Internet billing, bandwidth management and multi-link manager, all in a single platform. The solution has been especially designed to serve small hotels, hotspots, cyber cafes, coffee shops, small offices, service apartments and more. Recognizing the severity of these threats over the wireless network, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) recently issued a notification to ISPs for the secure use of Wi-Fi services and tracking the perpetrator in case of abuse. Businesses that extend their private networks over Wi-Fi must also take adequate security measures.

Mr. Samiksh Aggarwal, Head-Sales, 24online says, “The simple design of this plug-n-play appliance allows even non-technical people to easily deploy the solution. Hotspots benefit by saving their valuable configuration time as 24online allows quick setting up and running of the billing system. This appliance-based solution facilitates immediate access to users through customized hourly based walk-in pins at the hotspots. Moreover, it can generate prepaid pins in the system using its walk-in user module while allowing logging-reporting of pins from which an administrator can know about Internet usage details for various users. ”

24online's comprehensive framework with an in-built RADIUS AAA server provides the most advanced and complete authorization, authentication and accounting solution based on IP and MAC address. It can support at least 15 to 20 concurrent users at a time. This solution not only allows authenticated users, but also prevents malicious traffic from entering the network. Therefore, it ensures complete security in any environment, including DHCP and Wi-Fi.

Taking into consideration the rising trend of Internet usage at hotels and hotspots, Elitecore intends to fulfill the Internet demands of the hospitality industry.
