Eskender, The challenges presented by 2500 students in a single school are very large. We cannot recommend deploying to such a school at this time. This deployment will require a large number of wireless access points, plus the networking infrastructure to interconnect them. Any attempts to minimize this necessary infrastructure will result in poor or no connectivity. I'm cc'ing Michail Bletsas, who can provide additional information about the challenges here. On the server side, we do not have an "off the shelf" solution for you. It will take a experienced Linux and network systems engineer to adapt what we have available to a school that large. Is there are sub-units within the school, which make it a group of smaller schools sharing a wireless network ?
