I operate a small 30 room motel and looking to get rooms set up for
wireless net. We have a basic router for office and lobby wireless but
its time we expand to room. So i am looking to see what i would need to
buy to have net in all the rooms. Motel is set up in a l shape with 11
connecting to form one part , 8 forming 2nd part which dont connect to
first part and 9 rooms located underneath the first part but not as 2nd
floor they located behind but down 1 lvl due to a hill so you go around
back and there would be 9 more rooms that are pretty much under the 11
rooms. Rooms are seperated by drywall and outside is brick.
wireless reaches the first room with a low signal. And i am looking for
self install and easy on cost so dont need best of the best

Does all the power come from one place (one meter)?

if so consider powerline networking (in this case ethernet bridging over
powerline), and in other areas you want wireless (and/or wired), the second
half of the powerline bridge units going into a wap/router
can be done quickly, easily, economically, and by yourself....


Links From another post/pasted in here...
Heck, why do two posts when one will do... here the link for the netgear
powerline stuff (under $140 for an ethernet bridge)

and the wap routers are from walmart Linksys wrt54g (for $49.17)

Fraid you are on your own for power strips, but you can usually find them
for $2-$3 each.....
