    Offering wireless wifi in a campground

    I have no clue where to start. We have forty acres with 350 camping sites, fairly level terrain with lots of trees. Camping sites are evenly spread amongst 30 acres. We offer wireless at our beachfront restaurant and bar with just a regular home (Bell Canada) modem. (has crashed many times). We want to offer wireless through out the campground to our camping customers through a paid service; like they would log in, give credit card info and use wifi for however long they paid for it. I really don't know where to start. I know one nearby campground uses Xplornet for their wireless through out their campground. Anybody have comments would be greatly appreciated.

    A UniFi wireless mesh with a Paypal integration might be the way to go. Guide is here:

    But I'm not sure "web hosting" is the forum for this discussion.

    UniFi isn't mesh, technically, but definitely look into them. We use a lot of their equipment and I wouldn't go anywhere else.
