Here my problem, I have customer, have wireles LAN brand Correga (AP & client Wcard), IBM x205 Server with windows Server 2003 20CAL License, but there are 46 user accesing to that server. Every morning 7.00 AM till 10.00 AM LAN connection to that server is always slow. My question is : What is the real problem because of CAL licence (Setting on windows server as each divice) or wireles device brand is no good & wrong setting (using unit 7 AP)? Where the website address from microsoft I can learned & guide to fix this problem

first of all your customer needs to buy some extra CALS !!!!

also check the server is set to DHCP and giving out IP addresses the accesspoint/router should NOT be set to DHCP and should also be given a static IP address :)

Can I ask if your "client" is using roaming profiles? They do need to purchase more licenses, and every one using a single cheap router is also to blame, but there can be so many other things that affect their connection speed. Such as IO of the server during those times, type of switches used hell just about anything. If they are using roaming profiles be sure to follow best practices and not save things to the desktop or Mydocument areas on any PC but instead set up a network share for this purpose.
