The second is not for the guest network but for the school that operates in our building. They must have, by law, filtered network access. Since we don't wish to utilize the filtered connection we'll just get our own. > > Ah. So the consultant had access to information that PLUG did not. So maybe he/she wasn't quite so clueless after all ... Yes, not so clueless. Actually, when met today he told me he had concluded that we needed only one connection because we would use the advanced wireless routers. Then he and I walked downstairs and started talking with the director of the school. Once she explained that they, too, wanted a wireless network he immediately realized that there had to be two networks and theirs would have to be separate. Fortunately, the consultant has set up wireless for a number of schools so he knows his stuff. Sorting out the bundled Ethernet cables will be up to me :-( Eric - -- # Eric Lucas # # "Oh, I have slipped the surly bond of earth # And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings... # -- John Gillespie Magee Jr -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlEGybQACgkQ2sGpvXQrZ/5j0gCgo3jCXkVG+MmQaZZ3MejoErCR ZdQAoJikM2wpPDJNGABOo5D1Eqlf01+p =e243 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
