About
Built in South Africa, for the people who keep towers running
When a tower goes dark at 2 a.m., the tools a small wireless ISP can afford tend to send forty alerts or none, and few of them know the difference between a dead radio and a flat battery.
I've worked in the industry for 11 years, 8 of them as a developer, and I've owned and run Gigatech (Pty) Ltd for the last 3. I built WISPMap as a service around the problems WISP owners kept describing to me: an alert for every router behind one failed backhaul, guessing whether a dark tower is the power or the link, and monitoring that needs its own server and a weekend to look after.
So WISPMap is built around how a WISP's network actually fails: backhauls with backup links, towers on batteries through load-shedding, radios powered from a router port. It's MikroTik-first because that's what most South African WISPs run, and it's hosted here because your network data should stay here.
During the beta, what you tell me decides what gets built next. Every release is listed in the changelog, and the roadmap shows what's coming.

The demo is a simulated WISP with 20 towers, running live. Outages, failovers and power cuts happen while you watch.
