Why do you need a wifi router in each room? Your walls made of steel or something?
Maybe they are ... sort of.
At home, house is wood frame, wood floor, little structural steel.
That's in north America :-)
A side effect of, comparatively speaking, cheap lumber.
My house is old, two storeys. Walls are made of thick stone, floor is concrete and steel.
My old house in the UK was like that, built at a time when lumber was (comparatively speaking) expensive but labour was (comparatively speaking) cheap. Heck, the idea of drilling though stone & concrete to install wiring, pipes carrying gas for lighting or cables for electric power & lighting was terrifying! The kitchen & bathroom were in an 'annex'. Easier to build new than to hack at the old.
New WiFi router is downstairs, it barely reaches some rooms upstairs (some times fails).
Ah, the wonders of a modern house! Mine reaches the whole house and the deck and the garden :-)
Yes, I've seen schools/university where each room, large, think lecture room, would need its own subnet. Perhaps hundreds of users aka students attending lecture.
I understand that is the case precisely.
No need for 'ancient'; many modern institutional building such as schools are built that way. -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
