Exact origins of this dish are unknown, several theories exist.
One theory - waffles entered American cuisine in the 1790s after Thomas
Jefferson’s purchase of a waffle iron from France. Fried chicken was a
common breakfast meat, and serving a breakfast bread with whatever
meat was available was a rural tradition.
Modern version of the meal is from the African-American community in
Harlem in the 1930s - in such locations as Tillie's Chicken Shack, Dickie
Wells' jazz nightclub and particularly the Wells Supper Club.
Harlem-style chicken and waffles have been popular in Los Angeles
since the 1970s due to the fame of former Harlem resident Herb
Hudson's restaurant Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles, which is
known as a favorite of Hollywood celebrities and been referenced in
several movies.

The explosion of Wi-Fi-enabled devices has
challenged hotel operators and their business
investment strategies.
Hotels are trying to balance rising guest
expectations with anticipated long- term needs in an
continually changing environment.
But Wi-Fi requirements vary for guest rooms, public
areas and conference spaces, one size does not fit
all.

• Why are my GSS scores for Wi-Fi lower?
• Why do we have new Wi-Fi problem areas?
• How many devices are really using the Wi-Fi?
• What are the guests actually doing over the Wi-Fi?
• Is there a capacity limit for Wi-Fi and when will I reach it?
• Will the Wi-Fi support all the new devices and applications?
ANY OF THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

IS IT TIME TO CONSIDER TO 802.11ac?
802.11ac sales will accelerate, reaching over 90% of all Wi-Fi devices by 2015
Growth of 802.11ac capable Wi-Fi devices will reach nearly 2 billion by end of2015
Assuming 3 year replacement rate = 70% 802.11ac market share by 2015.
It Depends!

MYTHS vs. REALITY
• Only high-end clients need this much bandwidth/speed Key value of 11ac is raising the lower end
• Just wait for Wave 2 (MU-MIMO, 6.9Gbps, …) to be safe Probably a few still waiting for 11n 600Mbps (4x4)
• Only limited # of 11ac clients in use Default chipset http://wikidevi.com/wiki/List_of_802.11ac_Hardware
• LTE growth will significantly reduce need for Wi-Fi Think Wi-Fi offload, Passpoint, 802.11u, NGH, …..
• 802.11ac will require a complete network rip and redesign Technology (wired and wireless) continues to evolve, planning for it is key
• 11ac allows you to reduce # of APs to offer same bandwidth Yes, in Theory, No, in Reality – where do you want to live?

SUMMARY
• Wireless networks will inevitably Congest – it is shared! Devices: Guests are carrying more and more devices Applications: Guests (and devices) are using more and more applications Bandwidth: Applications are requiring more and more bandwidth
• Wireless networks require continual Monitoring – it’s growing! How many devices are on-property? – associated and unassociated What applications are they using? - video, voice, gaming, .. What is the average data connection rate? – the user experience
