Equipment CJIES Uses to Run City-Wide Hotspots

For the CJIES City Wi-Fi deployment, MikroTik routers and access points are the primary hardware choice. MikroTik is well-suited for community Wi-Fi at scale. Combined with Powerlynx, it provides a simple and scalable setup that lets CJIES manage multiple hotspot locations efficiently without heavy technical overhead.

Challenges CJIES Faced Before Powerlynx

1

Manual user management — adding and removing users required constant hands-on work, making it time-consuming.

2

Limited control over bandwidth and sessions – there was no reliable way to control how much data each user consumed or how long their session lasted.

3

Difficulty scaling while keeping services affordable.

Since implementing Powerlynx, we’ve noticed a significant reduction in the time and effort required to set up new hotspot sites. Previously, much of our work involved balancing both software and hardware challenges. Now, with Powerlynx handling the software side seamlessly, our focus has shifted almost entirely to civil works and hardware installation.
