Chintimini Wildlife Center has several buildings spread out 100-200' feet apart.

Objective: create a local area network that links the buildings together, and allow visitors to use WiFi connections.

There are a variety of out buildings. I have done a map, need to upload it.

  1. Reception - At the front of the property
  2. Residence - currently the phone line and cable Internet connections are here.
  3. Clinic - 200' north of residence
  4. Raptor barn - north of clinic
  5. Educational center - the "yurt" - 100 northeast of clinic

A wired network would be great, but hard to implement right now. We'd need to do over 300' of trenching. So I am going to try a wireless link first.

An indoor access point will be located in the residence. It will have a directional antenna aimed north to the clinic.

We can do a wired link from the residence to the reception building, they are in close proximity. Reception is not normally staffed, there is a door bell that rings in the clinic. So this is low priority.

On the clinic roof will be a mast with two EZ-Go-2 Wifi AP's. One will point south towards the residence and one will point northeast towards the yurt.
