Well, nevermind then..

I was able to run in those two conference rooms in between meetings this afternoon, only to discover that they both seem to work fine now. Figures! I’m still going to try and take advantage of the mystery network problem to put together a proposal on using a router with DHCP to give easy internet access to the conference rooms and the Chairman’s work room for folks to use when they’re in the building. Shouldn’t cost very much to add a 4 port router in the wiring closet and plug those network ports into it, making those rooms capable of getting an IP address and DNS settings automatically, while leaving the rest of the network with the same static IP’s that we’ve always had.

  • One of those days..

    Yeah, today’s another one of those days where there’s a ton of stuff to do, and little interruptions or setbacks just make it all take much longer than I had hoped it would. On the other hand, I’m beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel on these projects, which is good….
