1. A computerized method for providing centrally managed Wi-Fi using internet protocol (IP) connections between a central Wi-Fi access gateway and one or more radio nodes, wherein the radio nodes and the Wi-Fi access gateway are connected across a wide area network, and the Wi-Fi access gateway controls Wi-Fi services for Wi-Fi devices connected to the radio nodes, comprising:
establishing, by a Wi-Fi access gateway, an IP connection with a radio node across a wide area network, wherein the radio node is configured to wirelessly connect to one or more Wi-Fi devices located near the radio node; receiving, by the Wi-Fi access gateway, Layer 2 traffic over the IP connection, wherein the Layer 2 traffic is associated with a Wi-Fi device from the one or more Wi-Fi devices connected to the radio node; and controlling, by the Wi-Fi access gateway, one or more Wi-Fi services for the Wi-Fi device based on the Layer 2 traffic so that the Wi-Fi access gateway can provide centrally managed Wi-Fi for the Wi-Fi device. |
