Project Details
We helped the City of Frankfort implement their city-wide wireless internet program. Most noteworthy was the development of wifi hot-spot branding for the city’s gateway pages. We designed, developed, and integrated custom branded wireless gateway pages into their current wireless network.
Anyone wishing to use the citywide wifi must login and agree to provide their email address for marketing purposes, which allows the user’s email address to be stored and gives the city the ability to communicate with and market to users through email. As a result the city now has an effective wifi marketing solution.
Furthermore, we also created an official wifi logo for the city during this project—which they absolutely love!

How it helped
We developed and integrated a HTML/PHP website into the controller software of a city-wide Ubiquity wireless network.
We built a fully working prototype in our office and then partnered with TKS Security to develop logistics and to finalize the installation on the city’s free wireless network.
As a result, the city now has a branding wireless hot-spot which can be used for advertising and marketing. All the while providing a quick and easy login access for city residents and tourists!
