Project Objectives

Objectives:

  • Wireless Coverage
  • Computer Lab
  • Educational Opportunities for Volunteers

Wireless Coverage Objectives:

  • No specific performance parameters have been defined or established. Our goal is to create an 802.11b point of presence with the maximum coverage possible to the surrounding neighborhood.

Computer Lab Objectives:

  • We have secured a donation of 10 PCs to be installed in the ceramics room. Our goal is to create a 10 station computer lab with full Internet access.

Educational Objectives:

  • We plan to have a 1/2 hour lesson on setting up M0n0wall on the install day, 1/2 hour before we start building the network.
  • The hardware installation will be a great learning experience, teaching everything from antenna grounding and waterproofing techniques, to cat-5 cable making and testing.
