[UCIMC-Tech] wireless down in Bike Project

Wed Aug 28 16:34:59 UTC 2013

Hi,

	Thanks Josh, and thanks Barry Todd for working on this. If the Bike Project space needs a new router, and IMC doesn't have spare budget to buy one,   Bike Project could give IMC the money to buy one.  (I'm guessing here that IMC owning all the routers makes things simpler for network administration over the long term.  Bike Project could also just order+buy a router ourselves, whatever model Tech instructs, let us know...)

			Cheers,

			Barry Isralewitz
