The City of Douglasville is located 20 miles outside of Atlanta and enjoys a vibrant community life, with an active downtown and several parks with community centers and large sports complexes. Although the City always wanted to offer public Wi-Fi, this became a reality when Google provided a grant as part of its community outreach program.
To enable municipal Wi-Fi spread across 100 acres, the City had to make considerations for peak use times during large events, and troubleshoot issues of elevation, interference and distance.
Aerohive was chosen for a robust and reliable solution, and many enterprise features enable the City to monitor and control the network in ways it didn't think were possible.
