They're offering a solution of essentially ripping t=e entire network out and starting from scratch — which MAY be the c=rrect way to go — without giving an actual diagnosis. The Cisco &am=; AirPort setup has always had its coverage gaps, but instability wasni,=99t an issue. Are we replacing everything for the s=ke of "upgrading" or is there an actual problem / solution p=an here? 2. I still don't know w=ere that firewall came from, who installed it, when it was installed, or wh=t its configured to do. That it just showed up out of nowhere and now we ha=e all these problems makes me wonder if it's just not setup correct=y. 3. You're right.

Their plan includes "several=separate v-fans" with managed switches... By JEE standards, this ho=se is not that big square footage wise, at most there will be what 5-10 peo=le there? What POSSIBLE need would there be for 40=9Cseveral" separated virtual local area networks??!! In other words= they want to have more than three networks completely isolated from each o=her, to support MAYBE a dozen devices. I can see a case for=separating the phones from the rest of the network, but when you start divi=ing WiFi from wired, you have all sorts of unintended problems — su=denly the printers don't show up if you're not on the corre=t wireless network, and the boss can't stream music from his iMac t= the speakers by the pool anymore. Terrible idea for how his networks are u=ed. I haven'= had any free time this week at all, but as soon as I can steal away a f=w minutes, I'd like to research the difference in usable range of r=ckus vs. unifi vs. Netgear's Orbi vs. Apple AirPorts vs. eero. = In 2014 there were 9 airport devices driving the P= network; today there are 7. The Ruckus are supposed to have dramatically w=der range, so I'm wondering why we'd need 9 of them to cove= the main house, cabana and staff house. 2 EFTA_R1_01683373 EFTA02536987 Thank you, James Ce your Personal Genius <=span> ii>=A3* Certified Support Professional 10.6 please review and lets discuss li=e ruckus but think quote is overpriced by 25-30% Richard Kahn HBRK Associates Inc. 575 Lexin=ton Avenue 4th Floor New York, NY 10022 Beg=n forwarded message: Bella Klein =/span> Subject: Fwd: Network Upgrade Option Da=e: January 16, 2018 at 3:45:14 PM EST To: =ichard Kahn Quote for PB Network i= attached Thank you, Bella Tel:=span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;" Begin forwarded message: > > 3 EFTA_R1_01683374 EFTA02536988 From: =/span>Fred Ogg < Subject: RE: Network Upgrade Option =/div> Date: <=b>lanuary 16, 2018 at 3:33:11 PM EST To: Bella Klein Charlie Teran Good afte=noon, > > IMP I've attached our recommendation for the network upgrade.&n=sp; Normally, it takes about two weeks to get all of the material, th=n the installation will follow shortly after.
