Clint, Our idea is to install generic APs at all gates, enable a dedicated WPA SSID just for scanners and take advantage of all those APs to also feed our regular WLAN to our Arena. If necessary, with this model, we could turn any AP on campus into a ticketing system ;-) It has already served its purpose when Athletics used the generic WLAN to check on "problematic" tickets at Paciolan! (having to leave to closed sytem)
