MANAMA, March 12, 2019
Batelco, the leading digital solutions provider in Bahrain, has launched a high-quality managed wi-fi solution for home users.
This new service will provide reliable, strong and secure wi-fi coverage and is the ideal solution for those who demand high-quality wi-fi in every corner of their home, the company said.
The new service boasts many features that include but is not limited to, support for up to 500Mbps wi-fi speeds, simple plug and play zero-touch provisioning and parental control security features.
Batelco’s Smart Home wi-fi solution is based on mesh wi-fi technology, which means customers will no longer need to have multiple wi-fi networks to enjoy strong coverage at home. The solution will extend coverage to the whole house with only one wi-fi network. Subscribers will enjoy uninterrupted connectivity in all areas of their home.
Moreover, subscribers to Batelco’s Smart Home wi-fi service will have access to the Batelco Smart Home wi-fi mobile application giving them the facility to manage and control their networks while at home or on the go. The mobile application includes various features including viewing network status, website and device blocking, time-based access control, configuring guest wi-fi networks and running self-diagnostics connectivity tests.
The service comes with 24/7 support from Batelco’s Contact Centre that has a full view of the customer’s home wi-fi network and can run connectivity diagnosis and also push connectivity fixes.
Batelco general manager consumer division, Maha Abdulrahman, said the new service is a strong boost to its portfolio of consumer services and supports Batelco’s efforts to deliver high quality and in-demand services for its customers.
“Batelco believes in the importance of promoting the growth of the technology sector, with a particular focus on its contribution to the development of digitisation to support the changing requirements in the Kingdom of Bahrain.
