I searched the posts and didn't see this question, so I apologize if it has
been asked already.

I have an office building with three rooms spread out and not next to each
other. I want to create network for the pcs. I will load windows server
and create a domain controller. There will be no internet connectivity. Can
I wirelessly add pcs? Set a router on domain controller and then add pcs
with wireless usb devices and a couple access points?

Do I need to string wire throughout the place (which would be a pain).

Thanks,

Tony

Hi

Technically you can use Wireless.

However since it is for business you have to take into consideration.



1.. Wireless is not as fast as Wire.
2.. Wireless is not as stable as Wire.
3.. Wireless presents security problems.
I am one of the biggest fan of Wireless, but it really boils down to what is the
purpose of the Network in your business. To secure and stabilize fast Wireless might
cost more than laying neatly cables, and still would not be as good.
