Ok, hello all. I was officially handed over power to work on my schools computer systems today. They have had the same company working on there computers for 5 years now, but after a recent incident...They are no longer using them, and now they are using me. Anyway, there Linksys HUB appears to be dying, every morning it has to be reset in order for them to be able to browse there network.
So I discussed it with the principle and he has agreed that while replacing the hub, we will add a wireless setup. Now I am wondering exactly how you all think I should go about this.
Right now they have an old server which holds all of there main school files, and all computer are connected to it through a Hub, the server is also directly connected to the net, and the internet is shared over the hub.
Should I buy a new hub and add a wireless acces point? Or is it possible that I just buy a router w/wireless integrated and reconfigure the netowork accordingly?
There are about 7 pcs on the main network, next year we will be switching to all new pc's and a new server.
