802.11 Bandwidth 
Tuesday, May 16, 2006, 08:01 AM
Just for the record, with 802.11 wireless networks (802.11a/b/g) are a shared medium (like a wired network with a hub).
Therefore, the available bandwidth is shared amongst all clients.

If you have 25 heavy users on 1 54Mbps AP, they would effectively get = 2.16Mbps/each. However, you must also take into consideration the Layer 2 protocol overhead. They might get closer to 1.5 or 1.75 at the IP level, and after the TCP & Application Layer Protocol headers, you may only end up getting 1Mbps/client for actual payload.

This fact can be confirmed by reviewing the thousands of results Google returns from the query: wireless shared bandwidth

Good to know!!

Employment changes 
Saturday, April 29, 2006, 01:21 PM
Yesterday was my last day working for my previous employers, "Think Network Technologies" in Durango, CO. They are a network integration company. There was much good about my working there, especially having the experience of working for an integration firm, however, the time has come to move on. Beginning Monday, I'll be working for Farmington Municipal Schools (http://www.fms.k12.nm.us), assuming the role of "Computer Support Technician". I wouldn't be surprised if the job title changes in the near future. They weren't expecting to get a CCNA, MCP, MS Small Business Specialist & A+ Certified Professional. My skill set will allow me to support their network at higher level than what they had planned for.

On the side, I will be supporting some local small business computer networks (4-45 computers).

Anyway, that's the current employment situation. The future is looking brighter and brighter!

Wow! That was so much easier that dealing with the mysql errors of bBlog. I think using this "Simple PHP Blog" is the way to go (unless of course, you're really versed in MySQL administration). ;-)

So now I finally have my own blog. I guess it's time to go to bed!!
