Guest WiFi যা সুরক্ষিত, নিরবচ্ছিন্ন এবং সর্বত্র সহজলভ্য।

Guest WiFi is a separate wireless network venues provide to visitors, isolated from the staff and payment networks. A captive portal handles sign-in (social login, email, SMS, voucher, or SSO), the access point places the device onto a guest-only VLAN, and optional analytics track footfall, dwell, and repeat visits. Purple delivers all of this as a cloud overlay on top of your existing Cisco, Aruba, Ruckus, Juniper Mist, Meraki, or Ubiquiti access points.

Setting up a secure guest WiFi network involves four key steps: 1. Create a dedicated VLAN on your network switch to isolate guest traffic from internal networks. 2. Configure a new SSID (wireless network name) on your access points and assign it to the guest VLAN. 3. Set up a captive portal (splash page) to manage visitor sign-in, marketing consent, and bandwidth limits. 4. Implement a cloud overlay platform like Purple to handle authentication (RADIUS), compliance logging, and CRM integrations without replacing your existing Cisco, Aruba, Meraki, or Ubiquiti hardware.

Yes — when deployed properly. Purple supports WPA2-Enterprise and WPA3-Enterprise on managed SSIDs, OpenRoaming / Passpoint for automatic secure onboarding on compatible devices, and a captive portal on an open-but-monitored SSID as the fallback path. Guest traffic is segmented from staff and payment networks at the VLAN level, and per-session keys prevent devices from decrypting each other.

Securing public WiFi for a venue requires five controls working together: 1. Isolate guest traffic onto a dedicated VLAN - this keeps visitors off your POS terminals, staff systems, and internal network even if a device is compromised. 2. Enforce a captive portal so every user accepts your acceptable-use policy before connecting, creating a timestamped record for any future legal or GDPR disclosure request. 3. Apply per-device bandwidth limits and category filtering - rate limiting prevents one user saturating the connection, while content filtering blocks malware distribution and illegal material. 4. Retain connection logs (device MAC, sign-in time, IP allocation) for the period required in your jurisdiction; most EU and UK operators retain 12 months under applicable law. 5. Audit your consent flows regularly to confirm marketing opt-ins are freely given, specific, and revocable as GDPR and CCPA require. Purple deploys all five controls as a cloud overlay on your existing Cisco Meraki, HPE Aruba, Ruckus, Juniper Mist, or Ubiquiti UniFi infrastructure - no hardware replacement needed - and holds ISO 27001 certification with EU, UK, and US data residency options.

Only if you want per-user authentication (WPA2/3-Enterprise, 802.1X) or per-device keys (iPSK). Basic captive-portal guest WiFi does not require RADIUS. If you need RADIUS without running one, Purple offers it as a cloud service — see the RADIUS-as-a-Service page for the full product.

Whatever you configure — and no more. Typical fields are email, name, and a marketing opt-in; you can also capture phone, date of birth, postcode, venue preferences, or custom fields. Consent is recorded per sign-up for GDPR and CCPA. You control the data; Purple is the processor, not the owner.

Guest WiFi is built for sign-up and experience — branded portals, marketing consent, analytics, and low-friction onboarding. Staff WiFi is built for authentication and security — per-user credentials via WPA2/3-Enterprise or iPSK, identity-provider integration, and per-device revocation. Most venues run both on the same infrastructure with different SSIDs. See the Staff WiFi and Passwordless WiFi pages for that side of the platform.

Yes. Purple ships native connectors for HubSpot, Salesforce, Mailchimp, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and dozens more, plus webhook support for anything else. Sign-up events, marketing consent, and presence signals can all trigger downstream automation — welcome emails, loyalty enrolment, re-engagement campaigns.

Hours for a single venue, weeks for a multi-site rollout. Because Purple runs as a cloud overlay, you do not replace access points — you change the RADIUS and walled-garden settings on the existing hardware and design the portal in the dashboard. Enterprise deployments (hundreds of venues, custom integrations) typically use Purple professional services for the cutover.
