a.) our peak is in the late lunch until dinner b.) a trick that I use to measure pool utilization is to watch the 'lts' numbers in local3.log as my peered DHCP servers balance the pools. (I also monitor leases and calculate pool fluxuations - but that takes longer to explain).

We have checked all the hardware and everything is running, I think we may be over saturating. What do you find to be your peak hours for wireless? I checked from 10 to 1 today we had approx. 1500 wireless connections. Last night from 8 to 10pm we had 6500. Is this what everyone else is finding? Sara M.
