Deliverables

Your document must include:
A. Introduction
a. Description of what you will do during this task (1 paragraph)

B. Site Survey
a. Profile installation building construction
i. List the materials of the floor plan and how it’s going to affect the strength of the wireless signal
b. Count heads and balance the load
i. Count the number of devices need to connect wirelessly
ii. Based on the devices’ location, calculate how many access point you need

C. Research:
a. Networking devices
i. List the networking devices you need to turn the Wired LAN design into WLAN design
ii. Explain each of the networking devices listed
iii. Provide a screenshot of the networking device (include price and specification)

b. Tools
i. List a range of tools you need to use to do site survey and installation of WLAN design (e.g. cable testing, equipment testing, modelling tools, power meters, radiation meter, ping, traceroute, etc.)
ii. Give a brief explanation of the tools you listed above
