Wireless rookie - question about mesh wireless internal

I was asked to help set up a wireless network for a medical center. We have a lot of time before its opening, then it's time to test. I would like to recommend some sort of redundancy between the AP in this time, it will take about 16 to cover the area. Being a medical institution, if a resuscitation access point fails, better if the client devices connect to another. My question, am I right to say that we need a controller to achieve? I built and installed the wired LAN, so here's my chance to build my skills wireless

Thank you very much

The best way to build redundancy into your wireless infrastructure is to use a concept called "microcells". By installing more APs to the smallest power of radio, you have the luxury to increase the signal strength of nearby access point if it does not. Consider the alternative, which is to install less APs 100% power, but if we fail, you cannot increase the power of APs nearby.

Now, a controller can adjust automatically is close to the levels of power of the APs when it happens, but it can be manipulated manually in a stand-alone environment.

Finally, if you have already installed a wireless to 100% of power infrastructure, you can install redundant APs in a standby mode. AP backup monitors the active PA, and it lights up immediately if the active access point fails. You must usually install these APs right next to those involved.

Regardless of the redundancy used, customers will see a hiccup in service when the AP goes down. This can be avoided, if the new access point roaming must be extremely fast. This will only affect you if you are using time-sensitive applications, and even in this case, it might not be noticed.

I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any questions.

    Hi all.
    I have a laptop of 52 - sp pt810e - 13 c. Updated to 512 MB by using 2 toshiba 256 MB pc100 modules purchased on ebay, upgrade to a PIII 850 also obtained in a ebay and upgraded to a larger 40 GB wdc wd400e hard drive, with a lot less noise than 12 GB the original.

    Play with my computer, I found an internal connector "bluetooth" next to the inside which belongs to the keyboard.

    Why is this? Are there any new Bluetooth module for Toshiba Tecra 8100?

    Hello

    I guess that this connector is placed on the motherboard, because it is possible to upgrade the Tecra 8100 with an internal Bluetooth module.
    I don t find Bluetooth modules compatible but all supported and compatible parts, you can order from the Toshiba service partner in your country.

  • Various Questions about wireless access controller

    Help me please with these fundamental questions about the role of the access (AC) wireless controller.

    Assume that the access controller and Access Point are connected via IP:

    -Wireless frames sent to AP to acre; include the original MAC header (on the way to wireless access)?  If Yes, is there a Cisco AC gets to fill the WLAN and LAN it is plugged (which means that it outputs as ethernet frames as if they were issued by Mobile Stations).

    -Is the AC necessarily the default gateway for mobile stations? I guess not. But it is possible the default gateway?

    The Cisco AC can function as a DHCP relay?

    The AP creates a tunnel to the controller. All IP traffic from the AP to the controller will address the AP source and dest IP to the interface of the Manager of the AP on the controller. The wireless client traffic is encapsulated inside this tunnel. When it hits the controller the CAPWAP is removed leaving the customer's original package to be sent to the local network through the controller.

    The controller should not be the default gateway for wireless clients because it is not a router. Think of it as a device that converted into wired wireless traffic.

    Normally, the controller acts as a proxy DHCP. Once the customer has joined a WLAN, the controller sends the DHCP packets to the DHCP server on behalf of clients such as the IP address of assistance normally configured on the router for cable customers. You can also configure the controller to act as a DHCP server for wireless clients.

  • Question about temperature internal Satellite A300 ND1

    Hello

    I have a question about the temperature of the standards it of ok for my laptop and what is the normal temperature and how can I keep it low?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    It's not easy to say what a normal temperature could be.
    The temperature is not always the same and it depends on the use of the laptop.
    Usually, the temperature would increase while gaming or running applications high performance. Why? Because all devices such as the CPU and GPU would focus the heat dissipation and this leads to a higher temperature.

    > How can I keep it low
    Very simply, you can keep still low level, but you can make sure there is enough free space around the laptop to ensure good air circulation.
    Also don t use the laptop on your knees etc in order do not obstruct cooling fans.

    It s also advised to clean the fans from time to time using the jet of compressed air. These sprays are really useful and could buy in the stores of different computers.

  • questions about 2100 wlc and lwap connection

    Hello

    I have a few questions, I hope you can answer me.

    In fact, I have a controller connected to 3 Lwap 2100, and they are connected to the WCS. they have a static IP address.

    The distance between each point of access to more than 30 meters.

    1. the distance between the access points affect the accuracy or the stream. How can I calculate this

    2. because the APs use a static IP address, each customer should I connect to the network to add a static ip address? can I do the APs detect clients dynamically?

    I have lwapp reset guide, guide WCS configuration and configuration guide for WLC. If you have more documents or more pls share with me.

    Hello Ahmed,.

    Yes the distance between AP affect the wireless signal.

    to determine the best location of AP and the distance between them, as the site survey is necessary with the expert of the spectrum wireless or airmagnat...

    You can check the following links for design and RF management

    1) http://tools.cisco.com/squish/1Ea09

    2) http://tools.cisco.com/squish/51a58

    for other questions about DHCP, it is not a must that customer use static IP, you can always configure them with DHCP.

    as an extenal DHCP (like windows server), or on the WLC himself (to the title of controller-> > internal DHCP tab).

  • Ask questions about the functionality of EA8500 MU-MIMO

    Dear Linksys

    I bought EA8500, and it arrived today.

    I have two questions about the functionality of MU-MIMO of EA8500 AP.

    1. I want to compare the performance between SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO, but there is no option to control this feature in the router admin page. Is that one of the possible ways?

    2 EA8500 supports 1733 Mbps wireless speed, but it resembles the speed of 1 Gbps ethernet cable.

    This router supports really speed 1 Gbps ethernet? or y at - it an option to support more throughput as the aggregation of links?

    Thank you

    Hi, hyeonu. For your first query, it is not possible because there is no option to disable the feature of MU-MIMO on your Linksys EA8500 router. In addition, with regard to your second, you can get a higher throughput of 1 Gbps since this is the maximum capacity of your ethernet connection.

  • Question about the issue of the Double NAT...

    Hah I posted for a little.  I have a question about Double NAT.  Is it wise to launch?  Reason why is that I have a WRT54G v6 router and the Zoom ADSL X 4 Modem/Router/gateway and it seems that sites take just a little more time to respond to Web sites.  I just want to know I have to turn off (i.e., go in with my router bridge Mode) or what.  Or leave it alone.  Now one last thing: that the problem of slow could actually be AT & T but I have the feeling that this isn't.

    What configuration options you have on the Zyxel to fill? What have you tried exactly?

    The basis for the first option is:

    * Bridged Zyxel.

    * Linksys configured for PPPoE with your user name and password for the internet connection.

    Instructions to fill the Zyxel are here or here depending on the exact model of Zyxel.

    The second option is:

    * Zyxel doing business as the router. I assume here that the Zyxel is on 10.0.0.2 with a subnet mask 255.255.255.0.

    Unplug the Linksys to the Zyxel. Connect a computer to the Linksys. Open the web interface of the WRT to http://192.168.1.1/

    On the main Setup page:

    1. change the LAN IP of 192.168.1.1 address 10.0.0.1.

    2 disable the DHCP server.

    3. save the settings. You will lose the connection. Unplug the computer.

    4. wire one of the numbered LAN ports of the Linksys for the Zyxel. Do not use the internet port of Linksys!

    Now you should be able to open the Linksys web interface to http://10.0.0.1/ all devices connected wireless of Linksys or connected to one of the three LAN ports must have a connection to the internet via the Zyxel.

  • I have a Photosmart C7280 and s question about a decision of the network.

    I currently have two workstations connected to a router via ethernet cables.  They are connected to a single (not HP) printer with USB cable through a USB switch.  Two laptops to connect to the wireless router.  I could replicate the existing configuration with the C7280, but the idea of a network in which the laptops were allowed to participate is very attractive.  One of the laptop is running Windows version 7, the other computers running Linux.  If I go for an ethernet network, the laptops will be able to connect to the printer via the router?  If I go for a wireless network, desktop computers will be able to connect to the printer via their ethernet cables?  A couple of Wireless USB adapters are a possibility.

    I understand that you have questions about networking with your printer.

    Yes, wired network connections will be no problem to connect to a wifi connected printer.  Most routers bridge cable and wireless to work as a single network.  There are some routers between wired and wireless networks, but these are before any company grade routers and network equipment.

    A wired desktop computer will be able to print to a wireless printer as long as it is connected via the same router.  Conversely, a wireless computer can print to a printer connected Ethernet as long as it's the same router.

    I recommend using a network for the printer configuration, if possible, to avoid printing problems.  USB hubs have been known to cause printing problems, although this isn't always the case.

  • Satellite U405D - several questions about overheating/disassembly/upgrading etc.

    Hello

    I have several questions about my old one by Satellite U405D-S2910

    1. when it works, after 2-3 hours (I run usually small programs such as safari, msn messenger and bsplayer) CPU gets 85 to 90 C (178-188). When I play age of Empires 2 (come on, its an old game) like 2-3 hours, it stops. What could be the possible reason? Furthermore, let me inform you about the climate of the city I live, 30 c temperature - humidity 25-35% (today).
    PS. CPU is AMD Turion 64 X 2 Dual-Core Mobile Processor. Model RM-74

    2. I'm going to disassemble my laptop in order to clean its cooling units (I think at the rate of overheating is this). It does seem like a desktop computer, so complicated. Ive seen a disassembly not to not (btw, its so difficult to spell dismantling :) I think Im going to do this. What are your suggestions on this subject? experiences could help me?

    3. my laptops is Ram 2x2gb PC5300 DDR2 667 MHz SDRAM memory, I want to replace RAM memory 2x2gb MACH XTREME DDR2 1333 MHZ CL9 NOTEBOOK. Should I do it? Fit my portable, stable work? any suggestions?
    PS. motherboard chipset AMD M780V

    4 - Finally :), should I use OS 64 - bit or 32-bit OS (win7)? what OS would you use if you were me?

    Thank you.

    Hey Buddy,

    1 + 2. I think everything is related to a higher internal temperature and you must clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. That is why it s not necessary to remove, just blow softly and soon the air through the laptop. You can buy such compressed air which squirts of each computer store I think and it takes only 5 minutes.

    3. in my opinion he should forget this update! The speed of the RAM is related to the FSB of the CPU and as much as I know about Satellite U405D it s 667 MHz so it s already the RAM faster than you can have. Save your money and buy a larger HARD drive or in the best case a SSD that can really improve the performance!

    4. in my view, the answer is clear: Windows 7 64-bit.
    Only a 64-bit OS supports full 4 GB of RAM. ;)
