Several days ago my friend called me and he asking me about EasyHotspot. The conversation went through until he told me there’s a Villa/Hotel interested to implement the EasyHotspot System. I said “sure, thats good ..” and then he asked me what devices needed to build the hotspot. After he knows the EasyHotspot requirements then he decide when to buy and implement the system.

Saturday (4 4 2008 ) is the D day … First, we bought the devices, and here they are :

• 1 PC (Celeron 3 Ghz, 512 Mb, 80 GB) , too much for EasyHotspot i think
• 2 pcs of Linksys WAP54 G
• 1 box of Tofu and Beef Roll (umm yummy …. )

After we have those devices, the best part took the place . Jakarta – Pucak took 3 hrs , 1.5 hrs trip, 0.5 hrs traffic jam, 1 hrs @ Cimory Resto .. Cimory Resto have a nice landscape view and also their fresh milk is good !

About 700 hrs we arrived at the Hotel. The air is quite cool and fresh … what a relief …
Since Bom2 needs to get back home as soon as possible, so we need to finish the job fast and start earlier …
Before we start to workin, here’s the scenario :
We need to connect 2 main sites, Office/Lobby and The Puri Kenanga area. We decided to use WDS mode for this scenario.

This is the “history” of working guys (eastimated time):

• unload the devices – 15 min



• installing EasyHotspot – 30 min



• patching EasyHotspot (ouch!) – 2 min
• configuring the APs (it could be faster if you RTFM , LOL!) – 20 min
• testing the system – 5 min



• testing the APs range – 10 min
• placing the server and APs at the proper place – 20 min

total : 1 hr and 42 minutes

So is everything done ? ummm not yet! We haven’t train the employees yet and i think we need to add this new features :

• no simultaneous use mode
• user current status
• postpaid BW management
• logoff url

Maybe on the next saturday we could go to Cimory again ! hueheueuheu …
Now we need to go home fast !
