This past weekend, my wife and I undertook a rather large project. Not only install a wireless network in the parish hall and sanctuary buildings, but also move the entire wired network that was terminating in the secretary’s office into a communications closet in the hallway. Given that my wife is a gifted Sunday School director, and not a network engineer, I knew this was going to fall largely on my shoulders.
While it was a challenge, we managed to not only keep the wired connection, but also to create a total of three (3) wireless networks in two buildings. I will follow up with posts for each step along the way.
[Update] So far, this has been a worthwhile endeavor. We managed to get a wireless signal all over the campus, minus the education building. But, we did not intend the signal to go there, so I am pleased. I can login in either the parish hall or sanctuary/admin area with no dofficulty. Moreover, the desktop machines used in the admin area get consistent signals all day long.
