Next-generation network solutions provider ArrowSpan ( News - Alert), Inc., has declared that its mesh network is now compatible with Sputnik Control Center service.
San Francisco-based Sputnik Inc., a provider of software-as-a-service (SaaS ( News - Alert)), enables wireless service providers to offer free and paid WiFi services and manage them over the Internet.
Sputnik’s most sought-after software — Control Center solution — provides Web-based interface allowing wireless service providers remotely configure access points, create custom-branded captive portal pages, track usage, enforce network policies, generate reports, and bills.
Interestingly, a single Sputnik Control Center server can manage one or hundreds of access points.
Another Sputnik software, Sputnik Gateway ( News - Alert) 700, authenticates hundreds of concurrent users and supports prepaid cards, credit cards or PayPal billing.
“The compatibility between ArrowSpan’s mesh network and the Sputnik Control Center gives our customers a complete AAA solution using a third-party service,” said Max Lu, president and chief executive officer of ArrowSpan, Inc., in a statement.
“Using Sputnik software with ArrowSpan mesh networks means more wireless service providers can provide branded WiFi ( News - Alert) services that meet their unique business requirements,” said David LaDuke, Sputnik founder and CEO.
