WiFiHapa is a complete WiFi-as-a-Service platform developed by PigaTech SoftCompany to address the growing demand for accessible, affordable internet in Tanzania. The platform bridges the gap between router owners (who have internet connectivity) and users (who need temporary access).
The system features:
1. Automated Router Management: Router owners can register their devices, set pricing, and monitor usage in real-time
2. VLAN-based User Isolation: Each user gets a unique VLAN password that expires automatically, ensuring security and privacy
3. Pay-as-You-Go Model: Users purchase time-based packages (30min, 1hr, 2hrs, 4hrs, 12hrs, 24hrs) via mobile money
4. Multi-ISP Support: Compatible with Vodacom, Airtel, TTCL, and Halotel networks
5. Real-time Monitoring: Live RSSI triangulation and distance detection without GPS
6. Multi-role System: Separate dashboards for customers, router owners, sellers, and administrators
7. Bilingual Interface: Full English and Kiswahili support
The platform handles the entire lifecycle from user registration, payment processing, session management, to automated password rotation - eliminating manual MAC address management that was previously required.
