Before we get started, you can find a full list of our installation methods πŸ‘‰ here.

Use this guide to find the best option for you.

I only have a standard internet router at my venue

We recommend using our Plug & Play Beambox.

It takes a few minutes to set up and connects directly to your existing WiFi router. Once connected, it will create a new guest WiFi network. Secure, easy-to-use and reliable.

I have existing network equipment that I do not want to change

We may integrate with your hardware already through our cloud integrations or self-install guides.

Find the full list of supported hardware here. If we don't integrate with your current hardware, you can connect multiple Plug & Play Beamboxes alongside your existing networking equipment.

If you're unsure that our Plug & Play Beamboxes will work with your existing network set-up, please send us a message.

I do not have any internet at my venue yet

Well, you'll need it! Once you have internet in place, we can send you a free Plug & Play Beambox.

It simply connects directly to your existing router and launches a new guest WiFi network. Secure, easy-to-use and reliable!

I have a very large space to cover

If you have a large business premise like a hotel, airport, vineyard, casino or shopping mall, then we would recommend one of our cloud-based installation methods like UniFi. We don't provide any third-party hardware, so this would need to be purchased separately, however, can save you money in the long run.


Types of Installation Methods

Beambox Plug & Play

Over 70% of customers use a Plug & Play Beambox to launch their guest WiFi network. It is a secure, easy-to-use and reliable dual-band access point that plugs into your existing router or switch.

If you need your installation to be as simple as possible, a Plug & Play Beambox is the option for you! You can learn more about our Beambox Plug & Play specifications here.

Cloud Integrations

Our cloud integrations are straightforward to set up with Beambox. We recommend, however, using your dedicated IT person to set up the integration with Beambox.

Our Cloud integrations can be managed at any time through your Beambox dashboard. Learn more about our cloud integrations:

Self-Install Guides

Our self-install guides are manual, step-by-step guides to activate Beambox on select brands of hardware. As they are completely self-managed, we only recommend using these guides if you are confident in your ability to manage your networks yourself.
