WIFI at the Royal Scots Club
The Royal Scots Club – Edinburgh was founded in 1919 and represents a club and town house in the centre of Edinburgh open to both members and non members alike.
The building its self and as described in their own web site “offers unique features that are architecturally stimulating and create a charm and ambiance that are relaxed and comfortable” so when Micron were approached to provide a WiFi internet system for them we had to consider all aspects of the installation very carefully.
With our experience and range of WiFi guest service products we were able to achieve an install that fitted into the buildings structure accordingly.
We installed as the “gateway” a Nomadix server working on a PIN code access system with easy user “sign on” and designed and implemented their own individual host page with user T&Cs and information relating to the property.
Although some areas of the building allowed for CAT5 cabling to the Colubris WAP200 access points there were areas that would not allow for cabling to be installed. With the use of Colubris MAP 300 access points we were able to create wireless bridges over the sites structure and thus create a WiFi network for guests without having to “hardwire”.
Apart from the actual ability to pick up a WiFi network throughout the building it is not obvious from any location that hardware has been installed throughout to create what is now seen as a necessary service within all hospitality venues.
