 +  * When the wizard is complete you can simply add Access Points to your networks and you are good to go!
 +  * Adding a new Cloud should take no longer than 5 minutes!!
 +  * The wizard creates the following items automatically so you don’t have to.
 +  * The default values work out of the box but if you require something different you can always edit these items later.
 +  * Let’s assume you sign up a hotel chain called Royal Hotel. Then the following items will be created.

 +  * Enter the location here and decide how customers will access your hotspot.
 +  * Select one or more
 +
