The challenges in hotel networking can be summarized as follows:

1.Uneven Network Coverage: Large hotels typically involve multi-story buildings with complex architectural layouts, including banquet halls, guest rooms, fitness centers, swimming pools, and other functional zones. Achieving seamless Wi-Fi coverage across these areas poses significant challenges. Signal dead zones or low-coverage areas may persist in corridor terminals, elevator shafts, or deep interior guest rooms, negatively impacting guest experience.

2.Stringent Compliance Requirements: Compliance with Cybersecurity Law mandates necessitates the deployment of multiple dedicated devices for network protection, resulting in high costs and management complexity.

3.Complex Network Operations: Hotel networks involve extensive infrastructure (routers, switches, APs, etc.) and intricate configurations. Maintenance teams must implement real-time network monitoring, rapid fault response, and granular management of user permissions and access policies to ensure secure and orderly network operations. Furthermore, the proliferation of IoT devices – such as smart locks, climate control systems, and other connected endpoints – has compounded the complexity and challenges of network administration.
