\n<\/span>5 Mistakes to Avoid When You Sell WiFi in Kenya<\/span><\/h2>\n1. Sharing a password instead of using a billing system<\/strong> Sharing a flat password means anyone can use your internet indefinitely, share the password further, and you have no revenue control. A billing system is not optional \u2014 it is the business.<\/p>\n2. Buying a consumer router instead of MikroTik<\/strong> Consumer routers (TP-Link home models, Huawei HGs) cannot handle session management, bandwidth throttling, or captive portals. MikroTik is the industry standard for a reason.<\/p>\n3. Not having a backup internet source<\/strong> If your fibre goes down, all your customers go offline and you lose revenue. A KES 2,000\/month 4G SIM in a secondary router slot protects your uptime.<\/p>\n4. Setting packages too cheap from the start<\/strong> It feels counterintuitive, but very cheap pricing attracts heavy users who consume disproportionate bandwidth. Start at standard market rates and use speed limits (Pawa<\/a> lets you set Mbps per package) to manage consumption.<\/p>\n5. Ignoring the Pawa dashboard<\/strong> Your dashboard shows you how to sell WiFi in Kenya<\/strong> best, peak usage hours, and monthly payout tracking. Operators who check it weekly consistently grow faster than those who set it up and forget it.<\/p>\n
