Take Aways
• Design for Performance – Not Just Coverage– Over provision for wireless (same as for wired)– Use all available 802.11a/b/g channels simultaneously– Reuse channels as often as possible
• Designed for Voice– More users at higher data rates = less contention/latency– Insist on standards-based QoS (802.11e / scheduled
access)– Map QoS through the wired network
