OKay, I'm hoping that this won't turn out to be as painful for you all as it was for me.
We have two different networks at the hotel. One is for the office workers and one is for the guest rooms. This is all run through the same router. The internet for the guest rooms is wired to run from the router to access points through out the hotel.
We have never, ever had a problem with the internet here. Two weeks ago the owner decided that he wanted me to start keeping the back office locked and that is where the router was. The owner decided that he wanted the router moved into the office lobby so it could be reset by the desk clerk just in case I wasn't here.
We have a guy that comes up for a couple weeks at a time and will work on a long list of things. We'll call him Jeff. So two weeks ago, Jeff moves the router and everything is done. But now the problems start. The office internet still works great.
We start getting complaints from guests that they can't get online. So my girlfriend and I start watching our computers in our rooms. We'll go from 5 bars to 3 bars, then it will cut out completely and then come back. Never had this problem before, always had a solid 5 bars.
Well, his computer is working fine and I'm told it must be our computers. Somehow I don't see that, as it's two different computers and well, it wasn't doing this two weeks ago.
So he and I get in a big yelling match yesterday and he's telling me that I should be able to pull up webpages just as fast at 1 bar as I can at 5 bars. I tell him that he's full of shit because at 5 bars it doesn't take me 30 minutes to load Yahoo.
So I guess the question is, is it something he screwed up and he's just full of shit? Or is it really suddenly a problem with several different computers?
