Broadband Wireless Wi-Fi Hotspot Installation
in Bournemouth, Poole and East Dorset

Is it time you considered offering your customers chargeable Internet access?

Whatever business you are in, hotelier, B&B, cafe, public house, in fact, any business where your customers may need to access the internet, are you catering for your business customers needs?

Today, the Internet is becoming more of a daily necessity. Users when away from home or office, want to keep up to date with work, upload and download files, save and send digital photos, as well as read and send business and family e-mail. Kids want to e-mail friends and family and chat online to keep in touch.

We are here to install Public Internet Wireless Hotspots in hotels, B&Bs, golf clubs, social clubs, sports clubs, Internet cafes, marinas and any other locations where users require an Internet connection for business and personal use. We cover Bournemouth, Poole and the surrounding areas.

For those catering for customers of the BIC (Bournemouth International Centre), the successful completion of a £22m redevelopment, marks a bright future for Entertainment & Business growth in Bournemouth. Extensive works have involved creating a new fourth hall (The Solent Hall), expansion of the Windsor Hall and upgrading of the bars, box office and foyer. The venue is much more flexible and can accommodate more than one major event at any one time.
The BIC’s showpiece, the Windsor Hall has been fully refurbished and expanded to an increased capacity of 4200 seated and up to 7000 capacity seated/standing. The BIC will now be able to maintain its position as one of the UK’s most successful venues for conferences, exhibitions and entertainment. Hotels and B&Bs in the area will now benefit substantially from increased trade throughout the year.

Hotels today are faced with an increasing demand for guest and visitor Internet connectivity throughout the entire site estate; guest rooms, conference areas, lobbies, restaurants, leisure zones, and outdoor areas.

Guest and visitor expectation is growing for a seamless internet connectivity experience and reliable access to broadband Internet is becoming a key differentiator in determining their choice of hotel. Conference organisers also require a practical method to provision delegates with Internet access as part of the overall event experience.
