Restaurant
Many restaurants today offer wireless internet access for their guests. Indeed, it's almost becoming expected in many areas. Business guests that eat alone, especially at lunchtime, want to be productive while they wait for their meal and even while eating. But cellular access is often weak indoors and is slow, regardless.
Providing your guest with a wireless connection to the internet costs you very little upfront (and nothing month-to-month) yet provides high value to your guests!
PBCIT can setup wireless access for your guests that uses your existing internet connection so there is no additional monthly costs. The guest wi-fi connection is completely isolated from your restaurant POS network so there is no possibility of intrusion. Restaurant POS systems do not make heavy use of the internet so securely sharing the connection with your guests will not affect your operation.
The wi-fi can be set up so that only your guests can access it, no passersby -- unless you want to allow that.
Audit Your Existing Guest Wireless System
If you already have a guest wireless system in place, you'll want to make sure it is segregated and secured from your primary back-office and POS network. The last thing you need is for some kid in the front-of-the-house hacking into your back-end network because your guest wireless system is not property isolated from your network.
I see this often. A restaurant owner or inexperienced computer guy slaps a wi-fi router on the network to offer their guests internet access and unknowingly exposes the entire back-office network to the world! This is not good. PBCIT can isolate and segregate your guest wireless system to prevent such exposure.
Don't take down your wireless guest access when it's so simple and cheap to secure it properly.
Many restaurateurs want to check on their restaurants POS and other back-of-the-house functions while not on-premises. PBCIT can set up various remote control systems to give you access to your systems while you are away. You can even access your systems from an iPhone.
