Required Hardware

I admit first off, I am not very knowledgeable about wireless. I have a building "L" shaped each 150' long. I have a network on the end of the L and want to provide wireless access to all rooms. I have a cable modem already installed and working network. Can someone provide a hardware list to purchase? I would be most appreciative.

Best regards, Ed

Ed,

It depends on the following:-

1) Is it open plan (already partialy answered)

2) Do the rooms have walls thick or thin?

3) Do the rooms have thick or thin doors?

4) Do these rooms have glass walls or doors, if so how thick?

5) How much coverage of floor space are you looking for?

6) What speed/office?

7) Do you plan to have more than one SSID (i.e provide internal & guest access?)

8) How much do you have to spend?

9) Do you want visible AP's or Hidden?

10) Does the office have a lowered ceiling

11) Do you plan to roll out wireless in other locations?

12) What is your cable mode speed?

13) What LAN infrastructure are you running?
