howto: running the wifi and power at medium sized tech events

<div class="document"> <p>Because I've done it a few times now and picked up a few tricks, I thought I would write a checklist for anyone who needs (or wants) to run the wifi and power at a medium sized (10 - 100 people) tech event.</p> <p>I hope that this checklist will be a useful for events like <a class="reference external" href="http://software-carpentry.org/">Software Carpentry</a> or <a class="reference external" href="http://ladieslearningcode.com/">Ladies Learning Code</a>, as it will give someone with some networking knowledge <a class="footnote-reference" href="#id5" id="id1">[0]</a> the nuts-and-bolts they need to setup and run a great (or at least functional) network.</p> <p>I've published this document as a Gist on GitHub to make updates easy.</p> <p>The document: <a class="reference external" href="https://gist.github.com/1346886">Wifi and power for medium sized tech events: https://gist.github.com/1346886</a></p> <table class="docutils footnote" frame="void" id="id5" rules="none"> <colgroup><col class="label" /><col /></colgroup> <tbody valign="top"> <tr><td class="label"><a class="fn-backref" href="#id1">[0]</a></td><td>anyone who knows the function of DHCP and the meaning of &quot;default gateway&quot; should be fine.</td></tr> </tbody> </table> </div>
