[OPLINTECH] WiFi usage reporting.

Tue Oct 3 10:13:34 EDT 2017

Hi John, et al.,
You asked about the Who’s on my WiFi (WOMW) program.  WOMW Library Edition is a product which monitors and counts the number of devices on a wireless network and provides libraries with easy to read and/or understand statistical counts. Your library is not required to use this product but it is provided at no cost to through the State Library.

Here is a link to our WOMW FAQs, https://library.ohio.gov/services-for-libraries/ohio-public-library-statistics/#Who’sOnMyWifiFAQs<https://library.ohio.gov/services-for-libraries/ohio-public-library-statistics/#Who'sOnMyWifiFAQs>

The company has been very responsive to libraries and our reporting needs.  They’ll work closely with your IT department to make sure everything is working correctly and work quickly to resolve issues.  They also offer a Meraki plug-in if you are currently using Meraki routers.

I’m the contact person for WOMW at the State Library so please let me know if I can help or answer any questions!

I use the Ubiquiti UniFi APs and they have a program to manage all the APs that has a simple reporting feature as well. It has worked great for us over the past 3 years at a fraction of the cost.

Aside from that, what about the State's "Who's On My WiFi" program?

We use Cisco's Meraki routers, which connect to a cloud management portal and let you generate reports on usage that count wifi sessions.

Is there a "best way” to count WiFi users over the month.?

(I’ll just start with that.)
