Computer Care Services act as a MyZones Wireless Internet Provider. The service means that business' and public areas can offer the public and guests wireless internet access.1. Our fully brandable landing pages give venue owners an opportunity to reinforce their brand and advertise services / special offers.
A plain old access point does not use of offer landing pages.
2. Computer Care Services MyZones provides complete access control using vouchers or usernames/passwords. This prevents unauthorised use of the wireless network from outside the venue.
A plain old access point has no applicable access control methods, this may allow users to access the wireless network from across the street without the venue owner being aware.
3. Computer Care Services MyZones generates reports for each venue, these reports provide an audit trail of wireless network usage. The reports can assist in reducing a venues liability when users access inappropriate / illegal content.
A plain old access point does not generate any reports and therefore inappropriate / illegal use of the wireless network can not be traced back to an individual user, the venue owner is therefore often liable.
4. When connected
to a venues office LAN, Computer Care Services MyZones
isolates wireless users and prevents
them accessing the venues office
computer equipment.
This greatly reduces the risk of
unauthorised access from wireless
users.
A plain old access point may be directly connected to the venues office LAN, making it easy for wireless users to gain unauthorised access to office computer equipment.
5. Computer Care Services MyZones provides outbound email server redirection, allowing wireless users to send email without having to change any settings.
A plain old access
point does not have any email features,
therefore wireless users can not
send email using their standard
email client.
6. Computer Care Services MyZones provides per user or
complete venue World Wide Web content
filtering. This can be enabled to
prevent users from viewing inappropriate
web sites.
A plain old access
point will not provide these features.
7. Computer Care Services MyZones provides per user or
complete venue bandwidth limiting.
This can be enabled to revent users
from using all the network bandwidth
/ speed, or to allocate a set network
bandwidth / speed to users.
A plain old access
point will not provide all of these
features.
8. All of the above features can
be managed and controlled from a
simple web based tool.
A plain old access point will not provide all of these features.
9. The Computer Care Services Myzones service allows venue owners to commercialise a Wifi service and make money without getting involved in payment collection.
A plain
old access point will not provide
all of these features.
