Installing, Troubleshooting, and Repairing Wireless Networks, Chapter 2

Wireless network criteria and expectations

Creating a wireless network can be more involved than a jaunt to the local computer store or on-line shop, grabbing a few wireless cards and access points, and plugging things in. Larger networks with more client systems may require different and more costly access point equipment. If your network spans a larger area than one access point or antenna scheme can cover, you will have to work out the design and costs of creating a contiguous, multi-access-point network. Many of these issues are covered in depth in this section and in subsequent chapters.
