Juni- verizon Repeaters- Any Good or Bad Feedback?

2009-06-02 Thread Lee H Badman
Not talking femtocells- strictly repeater.

We are contemplating taking a chance on a Juni repeater, installed by 
Verizon-partner installer, to help with an area of poor coverage in a large 
building. I know there are other do-it-yourself solutions, but the appeal here 
is that survey, placement, and support becomes somebody else's problem 
(theoretically). After speaking with Juni, the prices quoted online include 
around 130 feet of antenna cable between outside antenna and repeater unit. 
Other antenna cable lengths are custom-built on site, and add to the cost of 
the installation.

That's what I know... the unknown is whether people are satisfied with this 
relatively new solution. Are there any Verizon customers using the Juni 
repeaters? We'd be looking at the JR-20 or JR-20 Plus in this case. Wondering 
about... satisfaction with repeated signal versus range claims (up to 
25,000/50,000 square feet- likely free space claims that will be considerable 
less in reality?), support, installation, etc. Good or bad- either input is 
helpful.

Thanks-

Lee

configuration script

2009-06-02 Thread Entwistle, Bruce
We are looking at implementing WPA security for our wireless network and
need a simple method of configuring the client computers.  I was
considering a script to configure items such as network authentication,
Data Encryption, EAP type, etc.  Are there any recommendations for
scripting such changes, or perhaps an entirely different process?  I am
mainly concerned with the configuration of the Windows machines.

 

Thank you

Cloudpath XPressConnect- formerly ID Engines. Very powerful- and a great 
bargain.
