I hope you have been able to watch the FIFA World Cup as well as action on grass at Wimbledon. The action over the last two weeks have been nothing short of amazing. Serena Williams and Angie Kerber will meet Saturday for the Women's Final. On the Men's side, Kevin Anderson and John Isner played a 6 1/2 hour match today, the longest Wimbledon Match in History. The South African, Kevin Anderson will meet the winner of Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, who just left the court at 11pm (curfew).

The Men's Final is Sunday, the same day and time as the World Cup Final between Croatia and France.

On this Friday the 13th, a#FryDay, we have very good news. We are very excited to let you know that the WAP125 now is available with Umbrella.

This feature, as well as an improved, optimized Captive Portal feature, set-up wizard for mobile devices, social logins including Facebook etc. and Google Authentication and support for Cloudshark for cloud-based remote packet capture.
