Our client, Durrants Hotel are a privately-owned, 92 bedroom Georgian townhouse based in London. We have recently carried out an upgrade on their wireless network, guest management system and also commissioned a new fibre internet leased line. The hotel are finding great improvements for both their guests and with their back of house systems. Below, we take a look at the benefits of the new software.
Ruckus Zone Director
The Ruckus Wireless ZoneDirector is Ruckus’ centrally managed Smart Wireless LAN (WLAN) system, developed specifically for small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs).
With simplicity and ease of use in mind, the Ruckus ZoneDirector is purpose-built to address the gap between standalone, feature-deficient access points (APs). They must be individually managed and the costly, complex high-end enterprise systems can be overkill for most small business environments.
The wireless network now consists of the latest Ruckus Zone directors which channel 60+ access points across the network. The Ruckus Smart/OS software and applications are just that: Smart. It delivers a bunch of wireless LAN features, not found in any other centrally-managed system. And it doesn’t nickel and dime you for them.
With capabilities like:
- Adaptive wireless meshing
- Sophisticated user access controls
- Automatic traffic redirection
- Integrated Wi-Fi client performance tools
- Elegant and simple guest networking functions
- Rogue AP detection and advanced Wi-Fi security features
- Flexible WLAN groups
- Extensive authentication support
- Robust network management
And it gets better!
Ruckus Smart/OS is widely-considered the most simple and straight forward centralised WLAN software system there is. Ruckus Smart/OS runs on all ZoneDirector Smart WLAN controllers, it uses a highly-intuitive Web user interface to make configuration and administration of the entire WLAN a breeze.

Fibre Line
A leased line is a permanent, dedicated high performance telecommunications network connection. It can carry voice, data and Internet traffic via a fibre optic connection between a customer site and a Point of Presence (POP). Leased lines are also sometimes referred to as a T1 connection / T1 line, or an E1 connection /E1 line.
Durrants Hotel use this Leased line as they need high speed, reliable Internet access 24 hours a day, seven days a week giving greater peace of mind for them and more importantly, the hotel guests.
And the best thing about a professional managed line by Netteam is we offer dedicated, uncontended bandwidth ensuring that the maximum line speed is always available when required.
This is beneficial to the Hotel as they provide a high quality service and we take away any worries they may have.
