Is wireless a good option here?

by vanalex . Updated 23 years, 7 months ago

Hi! I was just called to make a project for a network renovation on a furniture store/warehouse.

At this moment the client has a coaxial 10 Mbit network so it will need a completely new solution to get away from this legacy system.

I was considering implementing a wireless LAN witch would avoid the time/assle/money to implement a new twisted pair solution and would allow me to implement this network faster.

My problem is that I don’t know wireless technology that well yet, I’ve been reading a lot about it but I’m working in third world country where the connection is tipically 33.6 kbits … So I don?t have a lot of bandwith for research. =(

This is a furniture store has I said, for about 30 users separated in two floors on different rooms. Some are open spaces within the 1st floor like the exposition room, some are on small offices with brick walls. All of this on 2 floors each maybe in an area of 30×40 meters. My question would be if I would probably need more then one wireless access point and if this would be a good ideia to implement or should I stick with Twister pair on this one?

Thanks
