Did you use the 802.11b wireless LAN at EPC@T?

(also any feedback from wireless at Moto-Midwest would be appreciated)

So for those of you who used the soap_wireless SSID, pls provide some feedback, both the good and the bad.

Certainly a part of the good news is we were able to deploy it and not interfere with FIRST operations (that'll help us bring it back next year). Also, CISCO- the major supplier of the WAPs- was impressed by its utilization and wants to take wireless to the next level at FIRST events, especially EPC@T.

I wish we'd had tested more items like getting the soap video stream working over the network, not just the wireless part, but also in Raytheon's Inet Tent. Also the DHCP server inside some of our routers couldn't quite handle the amount of clients that connected. (but that's actually a "good problem" as we now know where to beef up the system for 2003)

Also, you might say security was not very high on the wireless..........a subject that will be looked at with great interest for next year.

Thanks for any feedback,
