DALLAS, March 26, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* is
making it easy for businesses to keep their customers connected
with AT&T Wi-Fi – Small Site. Businesses with small locations
can self-install the service to give their customers free public
Wi-Fi from AT&T, while keeping their internal Wi-Fi traffic
highly secure and
separate.
AT&T Wi-Fi – Small Site is ideal for professional offices,
restaurants and retail stores because it:
- Lets a business extend a public Wi-Fi Hot Spot to all its
customers at no cost to the business or the end user.
- Includes two network names: a public network and a private
network only for employees.
- Lets businesses create an additional branded Wi-Fi network for
public use.
- Keeps business going in case of an emergency. Qualifying
businesses can stay connected via a 4G/LTE connection. This gives
them an option to keep business data flowing in case of
disruption.
- Provides the added benefit of network metrics and
reporting.
- Optional URL filtering that allows family-friendly web
surfing.
"Wi-Fi demand is at an all-time high. People want to be
connected, whether they're waiting for their car to be fixed,
shopping in a local store or sitting at their favorite café," said
Sarita Rao, president, AT&T
Wi-Fi Services. "AT&T Wi-Fi – Small Site makes it simple for
small businesses to offer Internet service to customers, giving
businesses the freedom to focus on what they love most."
One example of this is Oil & Vinegar, a gourmet retail
franchise. "We've used AT&T Wi-Fi – Small Site in our first
location for several weeks, and will be using it when we open our
new store," said Cheryl Kobza, owner
of two Oil & Vinegar franchises in Dallas, Texas. "We believe that offering free
Wi-Fi will encourage our customers to interact more with us on our
social channels and we are excited to share new recipes and new
ingredients while they browse through the store."
AT&T Wi-Fi – Small Site runs on businesses' existing
connections. Qualifying businesses must use a circuit with a speed
of at least 6 megabits per second. AT&T Wi-Fi – Small Site will
also be offered as part of All for Less, which lets small
businesses bundle services their way and choose the right services
and productivity applications.
