Survey & heatmaps
Predictive design from your floor plan, then an on-site walk survey to confirm signal, noise and interference.

XcellNetwork|Managed Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi planned from a survey, not a guess — then watched 24×7.
XcellHost surveys your floors, designs the access-point and channel plan, installs and configures it, and runs it from the Mumbai NOC: OTP guest login with the records Indian rules expect, separate networks for staff, guests and devices, and an alert before anyone at the front desk notices.

Overview
Wi-Fi is now the network people actually use — so run it like one.
Managed Wi-Fi means one team owns your wireless network end to end: where each access point goes and why, which channels and power they use, who may join which network, and what happens at 2 a.m. when one stops answering. Most Wi-Fi complaints — the dead corner, the conference room that drops calls, the guest network that slows billing — come from guesswork at install time and nobody watching afterwards.
XcellHost starts with a survey and heatmap, designs for the devices you really have (including Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 on the 6 GHz band India de-licensed in January 2026), installs and configures it, then monitors it from the 24×7 NOC in Mumbai. Guest access uses mobile-number OTP with login records kept for a year, staff and IoT devices sit on separate segments, and you get one per-access-point bill in rupees with GST.

Capabilities
Everything between the socket and the smartphone — designed, configured and watched.
Each capability is part of the managed service, not an extra you discover later. Hover a card for what we actually do.
Wi-Fi 6, 6E & 7
We pick the generation by your devices and density — and use the 6 GHz band where your clients support it.
- 160 / 320 MHz channels on 6 GHz
- 2.4 GHz kept for IoT
Cloud-managed control
APs run from a cloud or on-site controller with templates, so a new floor or store gets the same settings.
- Per-site templates
- Scheduled firmware windows
Guest portal with OTP
Guests verify a mobile number by OTP, accept your notice, and get a timed pass. Each login is recorded.
- Login records kept one year
- Privacy notice & consent
Segmented SSIDs
Staff, guest and device networks map to separate VLANs and firewall rules, with WPA3 where devices allow.
- WPA3-Enterprise for staff
- Guest to internet only
NAC & rogue detection
Unknown devices are checked before they get access; rogue and look-alike APs are spotted and contained.
- Genian NAC integration
- Wireless intrusion detection
Roaming that holds a call
Fast roaming between APs so a video call keeps going from desk to meeting room.
- 802.11k / v / r tuned
- Band steering & airtime fairness
24×7 monitoring
AP health, client experience and interference watched by the XcellHost NOC, with a monthly report.
- Alert, ticket, remote fix
- Coverage & client trends

India's lower 6 GHz band gives 500 MHz of licence-free spectrum for indoor and very-low-power use. Actual channels depend on the AP model, the rules and the survey.
Architecture
Three networks on one set of APs — and only one of them reaches your servers.
Each SSID lands on its own VLAN. The firewall and NAC decide what each segment may reach; the controller and the NOC sit on a separate management path.
Staff
802.1X with your directory (Entra ID or AD) and WPA3-Enterprise; devices that fail NAC posture go to quarantine.
Guests
OTP portal, timed passes, per-user rate limits, client isolation, internet only — never your LAN.
Devices
CCTV, printers, POS and sensors on their own segment with allow-listed destinations.
Management
Controller, switch and AP management isolated, monitored by the NOC, logs kept 180 days in India.

How XcellHost delivers
Survey and design, deploy, then run it 24×7 — one team the whole way.
The same engineers who design the network hand it to the XcellHost NOC, so nothing gets lost between the project and the support desk.
01
Survey & design
Predictive model from your floor plans, on-site walk survey with a spectrum check, then an AP, channel and SSID design you sign off.
- Bill of materials & heatmap
- SSID / VLAN / firewall plan
02
Deploy
APs mounted and cabled, PoE checked, controller and portal configured, then a validation survey proves the coverage you were promised.
- After-hours install windows
- Post-install validation heatmap
03
24×7 NOC monitoring
AP, switch-port and client health watched around the clock; faults ticketed and fixed remotely, with field visits where needed.
- Alerts with runbooks
- Monthly Wi-Fi experience report
India compliance
Guest Wi-Fi in India comes with rules — we design them in from day one.
XcellHost helps you meet these requirements; your legal and compliance team decides what applies to your setup.
The numbers that matter
6 hCERT-In incident reporting window
180 daysCERT-In rolling ICT log retention
1 yearWi-Fi login records (DoT / PM-WANI)
500 MHzlower 6 GHz band, licence-free since 20 Jan 2026
Sources: DoT Wi-Fi directions (23 Feb 2009), PM-WANI guidelines, CERT-In Directions (28 Apr 2022), DoT G.S.R. 47(E) (20 Jan 2026).
DoT · public Wi-Fi authentication
DoT's 2009 directions say hotspot users are authenticated centrally — for example a login sent by SMS to their mobile — and the mobile-to-login record is kept for one year. Leased-line customers who run their own Wi-Fi are expected to run central authentication or use their provider's.
PM-WANI hotspots
Under DoT's PM-WANI framework, users verify their mobile number by OTP and the aggregator stores user data for one year, with user data and usage logs kept in India. We can design for PM-WANI or for private guest Wi-Fi.
CERT-In Directions, April 2022
Report specified cyber incidents within 6 hours, keep ICT system logs for a rolling 180 days, and sync clocks to NIC or NPL time servers. Controller, AP and portal logs are kept and time-synced to support this.
DPDP Act 2023
A guest's mobile number is personal data. The portal shows a notice, takes consent for the stated purpose, and records are deleted when the retention period ends.
Lower 6 GHz band rules
DoT exempted 5925–6425 MHz from licensing for low-power indoor (up to 30 dBm EIRP) and very-low-power (up to 14 dBm) Wi-Fi. Use in cars, trains, boats, drones and most aircraft is excluded. We deploy only India-compliant 6 GHz APs.
BFSI · RBI & SEBI
Banks, NBFCs and regulated entities are expected to segment networks and control wireless access. Guest isolation, 802.1X for staff and logged changes give auditors clear evidence.
