Riversong Cottages is a “modern, cozy, and boutique” accommodation in Murchison, South Island, New Zealand. Nestled in the countryside amongst the Buller River and mountain views, Riversong features 2 two-bedroom cottages, a studio unit, and the main building.

As WiFi access is expected from most travelers, Riversong needed to offer its guests strong, reliable wireless internet access. As the cottages and main building are spread throughout the property, long-range WiFi AP was needed, yet all the options they had tried failed to meet the signal strength and throughput needs of Riversong’s customers.

The company’s greenhouse workers use barcode scanners on smart devices to identify plants, move them, follow watering and fertilizing schedules, and more. With 140,000 square meters to cover, the Linksys WiFi APs they were using left a lot to be desired in terms of range and signal strength. Their Linksys APs also were not weatherproof and often experienced issues due to heat and humidity.

The Solution

Semillero Deitana chose to implement Grandstream’s GWN7600LR WiFi APs throughout their 140,000 square meter greenhouse. The GWN7600LR solved all of their problems by offering them a network of weatherproof WiFi APs that could stand up to the conditions of their greenhouse, which was set at 85% humidity and 32ºC (90ºF) temperature. The GWN7600LR ranges up to 300 meters to cover more space with fewer APs while achieving stronger signal strength.

BounceNZ uses audio tuning software to test their entire audio system, which connects to and tunes the audio network by connecting to it through WiFi. They required a powerful, long-range WiFi AP that would allow their systems engineers to roam around large venues to test that the audio is going where it is meant to go and can be properly tuned to optimize sound.
