This is funny :-) Re: Wireless LAN Troubleshooting

I thought this was funny enough to share, on:

http://analytics.informationweek.com/abstract/18/126/Mobile-Wireless/review-wireless-lan-analysis-tools.html

In the document it has an Executive Summary - Wireless Analysis Tools - sidebar, which says, and I quote:

Q: Users complain that your WLAN misbehaves every day around 1 p.m. Do you:

a. Blame it on employees surfing the Web at lunchtime;
b. Assume it’s just the nature of WLANs to be
erratic; or

c. Tell the whiners to be thankful they have a
WLAN at all?

The right answer is “none of the above.”

* I know there have been *some* times when Yacht Captains or Engineers want to tell the whiners to be thankful they have a Wireless Network, and Internet at all…

But we all know that’s not the answer. Crew these days for yachts are expecting Internet Access - at least *most* of the time. And we might even be at the tipping point where potential crew will walk because of lack of Internet connectivity onboard a yacht.

Anyway, I thought that would be a funny way, or a fun way, to talk about the subject. I am now in my 6th year working for Marine Customers, mostly Sail and Motor Yacht Customers, assisting with and providing Onboard Networks and Internet Systems - as well as Assisting With and Cleaning Up / Improving existing such Systems.

Well there yah go…! Happy New Year!
