Re: [Debconf-team] [Debconf11-localteam] Network equipment
I get OpenWRTs (more then 50), just need to select which works :)
So for now we have 24x switch, APs, tools, cables... Do I need to
search for gigabit switch (how many ports?) or more APs, or anything
else we need? I did not find any details in DebConf 10 report, so any
help would be appreciated.
I am sure Disti would help, there is very nice ppl.
Cheers,
Adnan
