I have worked on wireless for an even space. I worked with our vendor on the Times Center in NYC. We recently upgraded because we saw issues and it costed thousands of dollars. We did multiple site surveys with the vendor. We upgraded Wireless Access Points. We added WAPs in dead zones. We fine tuned power levels We made changes to the software to make sure wireless devices roamed properly We spent a lot of time getting it to work. So as a person who has done this work, Martin and his team have my utmost respect for what was built in InfoAge.

I think this is getting way off track and posting blame isn't going to change the network.
I take exception with the understanding of what it takes to build a network. I've built very large networks (Corp 50 type networks). I haven't built exhibition networks. Those are two different things. This network is not designed to handle an expo center network, especially on a campus env.
Remember this network was built with volunteers and a lot (if not all) was donated. Not a cheap thing, expecially with 10G fiber between the building.
If someone wished to cough up the dollars and volunteers to build an expo network, please step up.
