Abstract

The present work degree consists in the study and design of a Wi-Fi wireless network for the free public internet service in the "Green Center" terminal of the city of Esmeraldas; The main problem of this research work is reflected in the lack of infrastructure and this being a site with more people from the city is not within the digital gap. In this thesis, the descriptive, exploratory method was used with a quantitative approach allowing to meet the objectives set. This project in its theoretical foundation covers topics such as standards, security mechanisms of Wi-Fi networks, configurations of wireless networks, frequency bands of operations of the active elements of the network. Through a survey, the need to implement this free wireless network to provide a quality service was analyzed. For the design, it was decided to use Access Point with BeamFlex technology for a wider range of signals, covering the total coverage area and user demand, favoring the economic budget of a future implementation of this design. With this project implemented, a free and quality internet service will be provided that would benefit users, tourists, commercial establishments contributing to the economic, social and cultural growth of the City.
