b tends to be more reliable than g, especially when penetrating walls.

I notice this kit is 11b only. Is there a specific reason for using 11b for
hotspots instead of 11g? I'm guessing it's because of the greater output
power and receive sensitivity of 11b but isn't OFDM better for bouncing
around the walls of a Hotel?

What's the currently recommended gear / setup for a motel?  Total of 113
rooms spread over 2 floors.  Going to be a 2-phrase project where the
first
group of rooms will have both Ethernet and Wi-Fi accessibility, with the
remaining to have WiFi only.  No idea yet on the layout of which rooms
will
be Ethernet / WiFi, but that's not really important.  Owner is running
the
Ethernet cabling himself - just looking to contract out the Wireless end
of
it.

I don't know much more than this at the moment.  Not sure on square
footage
or anything - that is to come soon, but thought I'd get some ideas on
equipment to start and then go from there.

Thanks a bunch!

Re: [WISPA] Motel setup

2006-02-16 Thread Mark Koskenmaki
G isn't reliable because it is set to back off and not interfere with any
other type of 2.4 ghz equipment.

This makes G have less throughput in an outdoor environment than B, even
though the data rate is dramatically higher.

If you could set the threshold in G, or just completely kill that behavior,
G would be awesome.

Use quality access points- consumer grade gear will bite your
behind.Back them up to a good AAA box.  We hand out UN/passwds to the
front desk on a weekly basis.  Keeps the access from being completely

That's 'Colubris', and I've been talkng to them myself this week.
Beware that the first layer of contact there is woefully ignorant of
things like channels! Has anyone used their stuff?

The really top-notch vendor of wi-fi gear is Meru
(http://www.merunetworks.com). However, you would have to purchase not
only three access points but also a controller for a total of $2k.Best,-- Dylan OliverPrimaverity, LLC
