What does a day at Internetworking Technologies look like from an insiders point of view? I can tell you what we’ve been up to for the past 48 hours. Allan Wagamon is putting in a new server for the Shawnee Country Club www.shawneecountryclubonline.com . Allan is tweaking an IBM 3500 which will server the country club for years to come. Dave Dolan is at Tower Shores, which is a beach community where INT has installed a complete community Wi-Fi system. It has been a challenge to say the least to insure the system remains stable. It’s been giving us fits for awhile. Dave is then heading to the Milford Senior Center www.milfordseniorcenter.net. They had to move some equipment and inadvertently disconnected their routers and now need our help to reconnect them. Finally, Dave heads to Delaware Bay Surgical in Lewes, DE to connect a nurses station. Tech Jay Millman is headed to Felton, DE to install a new IBM x206m Server for Ray’s Plumbing and Heating. Jay also has scheduled calls to Millsboro, DE for Synergy, who is the M&T Bank tech scheduling company. Jay will be replacing a couple of hard drive and fixing a fuser in a printer. Tech Glenn Cross is scheduled to head to Keller Williams Realty Central Delaware www.deeanddoreen.com to hook up a dual monitor system. He then will head to Atlantic Refrigeration in Lewes, DE www.atlanticrefrigeration.net to fix the problem on Tim's computer. He will disjoin and rejoin to domain and add Tim as administrator to local workstation. Not the busiest day we’ve ever seen but it adds up to keep us on our toes.
