With the advent of Web 2.0 technologies, social media and smart phones, schools are becoming increasingly reliant on wireless technology. School wireless networks need to have the capacity and coverage to support virtual learning environments, online content, streaming video, mobile devices and more. School wireless networks need to have stable and reliable connectivity in learning areas, making solutions available to students and educators alike.

SOLVED

How many users can one wireless access point carry? What about dead spots inside the classroom?

These are common concerns and questions for a school wireless network.

This ensures that everyone has the same experience no matter when they get on the network.  Role Based access control also helps to guarantee bandwith.

Challenge #2: Technological (IT) Challenges - SOLVED

Deploying WLAN in the classroom provides an enormous benefit to students and educators alike, but one common concern is management by the IT Staff.
