An EZ-100G easyWISP controller is installed at each PtMP radio site, or multi-subscriber site, such as a multi-dwelling building or a business office building with several subscribers. Each site is then connected to the Internet by the most efficient backhaul method. This might be via a landline, a DSL, or a point-to-point wireless link.
Each EZ-100G easyWISP controller authenticates subscribers through to the Internet, based on the subscriber authentication rules that are passed to the controller from the cloud4WISP system. The easyWISP controller also monitors the subscriber links for failure and issues a work order to the field service technician when a failure occurs.
