Scary Wireless Stories
In the spirit of Halloween, the MaintainIT blog is sharing real-life stories of wireless horror. Crashing systems? Massive security intrusions? Turns out, Louise Alcorn writes, the greatest threats are "poor planning, lack of information, or unstable or ill-equipped infrastructure."
Check out Alcorn's post to read the chilling tales of The Problem of the Keys, The Helpful Patron, and Solution on a Stick. Be sure to share your own spooky stories in the comment section.
TechSoup's Maintain IT Project is a three-year project funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation working with public libraries to identify best practices of technical support for public computers.
