A few more bits of the puzzle. I don't have a good solution at the
moment. The PBX software works but needs some techincal expertise. ie I
played with it for a few hours before grasping it, but the right ten year
old child would probably have no difficulties.
I've set up a couple of TP-link

Cheers John! We're collecting data on financial services, education and
health facilities in Eastern Uganda and are looking for sharing solutions
that don't involve the internet. With up to 50 students at times, sharing
files via usb sticks and external hard drives is not ideal as it can be

It also works on an ASUS RT-N66U which is a conventional wifi router but
has greater range than a lap top hot spot or smartphone. If it works on
