I want to share WiFi access for 20 floors hotel with 143 rooms. The building is high, not wide.
I have rj45 cable with 1000mbps link on first floor.
I want to be cable less scenario. (im not a pro)
I want to have captive portal with login (codes or username+password)
I want to make my own site with php language.
I can work with ssh.
I want to create with ssh guest codes or username and passwords.
I want to have one global ssid with the name of the hotel.
The access codes or usernames + passwords i want to access the internet After login on the portal (captive) .
The login page is not necesery to be outside from devices.
I only want to create guest access codes or username and passwords from ssh.
If ssh commands have more options to delete users or to set expire time will be good.
I not want to limit the traffic, only to create/delete/or to set expire time.
Option to get all visited links from guest from ssh commands will be good option too. (like internet history)
Please, give me links to devices that can do this job and have this features.
If this features not exists yet,can be available soon?
(like changes in firmware)

Say what ? May I assume you have RJ45-cabling running to the different floors on which various AP’s will be connected ?
They typically are consolidated on some LAN-switches and cabling runs then vertical down to the core of your network.
I hope you don’t mean you only have RJ45 up to the first floor If so, forget it.

Normally you will have to have a WLAN “survey” done you you know the total amount of AP’s requires to have the signal-levels that are needed for a good Wifi “expierence”. You cannot just go in and “hang some AP’s around the building”
There is also software to “model” this before making actual measurements (eg. EKAHAU Pro)
Some of the other requirement you have are not particular “complex” I think, but without Mikrotik knowledge…get yourself a consultant and this is done in 1-2 working days.
I’ve never set up wifi for a highrise building or even on such a scale myself, but the concept is pretty much the same as with SOHO in that even I can tell you that you’ll need to run cable on every floor if you want a reliable solution for your guests. That’s the absolute base-level minimum requirement. Beyond that, I suggest a PoE network switch on each floor, with ethernet cable branching out to each of the 140+ rooms (or one AP for every two rooms, situated between them, if you cant do one for every room), and then configuring the AP’s with medium power and appropriate channel separation to minimize interference. Beyond that, you will need to decide what hardware to use for the purpose… The concept is simple, but the scale is quite extreme and may prove difficult to complete on your own. I suggest starting with the proof of concept on a small scale. Get your hotspot system working first. Then you can progressively scale out the network out to the guest rooms and improve coverage from there.
Hey Gotsprings, the difference is US MT help gets the job done efficiently and in a reasonable time frame, those Europeans, you know get up when they want too, have some wine for lunch, a siesta in the afternoon, lucky to get 15 minutes of decent work in a day… So two months is probably accurate. ;-PP
I have realized WiFI-Setups up to 2500 End-Devices.
This seems not problematic, a CCR1036/1072, a Captive Portal (like MTs build-in or another vendor, like HSNM), a well structured building wiring with switches on each floor, a good internet-connection and you are good to go. But I dont like your “I WANT… I WANT… I WANT…”. You sound like a smol kiddo.
As someone who has written scripts and configs that have been used thousands of times by hundreds of dealers… WHILE I WAS TOO DRUNK TOO REMEMBER THAT “HEY, I WROTE THAT.”
The above was the latest post Pok4 could have seen, because it was the latest posted at the time he was last active. So perhaps he took @anav’s advice (or maybe he discovered OpenAi’s ChatGPT and pasted his question into it).
For fun, I tried pasting the question into ChatGPT, but I think @anav’s advice was better. My impression of the answers I have seen ChatGPT give is that they are polite but generic, or it you ask it a specific technical question, it will make stuff up and state it confidently. Someone I talked with at work said ChatGPT’s answers reminded him of a summer intern that wants to please the boss, but isn’t above making stuff up if he thinks it will make them happy.
