Any One Making Money with WISP/ WIFI Zone?

[KHR]

Hello,

Is there anyone doing Wifi Business? I need suggestion. Please Advice Me.

I have opportunity to get 100/MB Internet Line. So I am planing to make my area Wifi Zone and Money.

I want to cover 1 Square Mile and want to sell Data but not Bandwidth. Like: 1GB / $5 / Month.
I do not want to setup Hundreds of Routers to cover my area. But I want to setup Long Range Antenna.

I wanna cover my area in this way:

My Targeted Users are Mobile User. I also need the Following Features: Full Control of the User, Data Limit System, Mac Allow/Block System. After Data Consumed user will be Redirected to Buy Data Pack/ Enter Coupon Code Page. When they successfully buy or validate code they will get instant internet access.

Please Suggest me what Equipment & Software I should use to Fullfill my demand.

Thanks in Advice

DIY Antennas, here.

Set up a meshnet, so it will be cheaper and quicker. Especially since you won't be able to get the massive, expensive antennae without licenses / lots of money.

As for monetization? Sure, your idea works. Have the meshnet track how much data comes from each router, and send the data to a central place where you can charge users.

And $5 / gB / month seems a little expensive to me. I don't know, so just do whatever works. In addition, if you had a big enough area, you could set up the meshnet software so that it has a small, non-intrusive ad at the bottom of the internet browser screen. That could be a good money-maker if you didn't want to charge per gB per month.

as a penetration tester the most thing i would care about is security ..
because almost everyone know how to hack wifi's now .
don't use mac address Allow/Block system because with simple 4 commands in linux i will get any costumer mac address and i will spoof mine to be as same as him and i will get a free internet access. so easy.
.
you can use a script that watch every new customer and log his details ( mac address - user agent - etc) then if it founds duplicate it will block it by ip.
or a phone verification system.
.
reply me if you want another ways to avoid hack's.

My area is too suburban for this, but this actually seems like a decent way to make some extra cash especially with the Pokemon Go craze going on. I think if you lived near a hot spot with a ton of pokestops people would gladly pay $5/m to leach off your internet so avoid extra data charges. I guess the only problem here would be people giving out the wifi password for free. There's ways around this though, of course.

man there is no password for the wifi , there is an internal one.
, when you connect to the wifi you will be redirect to a webpage asking for paying money to get internet access.

A MAC/Password dual authentication is fine, no major security issues there.

Really !! , haven't you heard about MITM Attacks Before ?!

Why do you not just give it away for free and collect emails, the users data, and their pokemon go accounts and sell those?

Can Any one Suggest, which Software, Router, Antenna I should use to fullfill My Requirement ?

If anyone can show me the full setup module, what I need.

I think there are govt regulations for antenne beyond a certain wattage, you might want to look into that first. And, your ISP might not like the idea of you selling data, you might want to check with them as well before they send a 25KV pulse on the line to burn your modem.

I can Manage all the Business License. So this is not a Big Deal.

use a phone verification system or better two step verification system password+phone for the login.
block icmp ping requests.
.
that's is for the login. , if you want to avoid MITM attacks setup an arp table.
.
You guys can earn also from injecting offers & ad's or better replace the current ad's with yours .

i can't recommend because i haven't work in this field before i just hack.
you can make some researches on google to find the best way that suit you.

Why complicate yourself with all of that?
In my opinion is better to redirect them to a CPA offer or something like that and after they complete it grant them 12 hours free Wi-Fi.

Do people really pay for Wi-Fi?
Where I live data plans are cheap as hell, where I used to live was the same, and everybody had at least a 100mb connection.

As a newbie i think i am unable to post links but look in google for "ubnt" ubiquiti is the trademark , or just put " airnax" which is an antenna very comon in hot spots .

They have all the equipment, it is a profesional way.

But for the hot spot, there is a "router" where you can control all your users and give them access and retrictions as bandwidth , but i am trying to remenber this company and i cant right now.

Hope it helps.
