Hello all,
I'm in the midst of getting ready to place a few AP's in a small building to cover for a 24 piece roaming laptop cart...
I can get the coverage I need out of 3 or 4 AP's (I need to do some testing, thanks Droid/Wifi Analyzer) but my main concern is getting AP's that can handle having 24 machines connected to them at one time with WPA2.
I really have to do this on a budget, (say under $1k if possible, $500 would be more ideal)
There will be wire pulled to each AP and no need for extenders/bridges.. This is going to be in a 2k3 environment with users locked down to automagically access only our access points.
Anyone have suggestions for the hardware?
HP/whatever is fine. The key is handling the load OK, not speed.
