1. Unlimited Concurrent Users per Installation Location
You pay one license fee per installation location (e.g. hotel) no matter how many customers want to use your hot spot at the same time.

2. Keep 100% of your profit: No ongoing leasing or additional costs.
Existing hotspot solutions are often offered only in conjunction with an operator contract which forces you to share the bulk of your revenue with a third party. You will not have to put up with that when using "MyPublicHotSpot": you are the only one profiting from the usage fees you earn!

3. Minor hardware investments
You can install MyPublicHotSpot on any standard Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 computer (even older machines). The only two other things you will need to run your own HotSpot is a WLAN access point and a second network card (not USB) - done!

4. Keep your own branding
