Our wireless network has started to expand by leaps and bounds in the past few months. As we add more and more wireless access points, are there any rules of thumb that we need to keep in mind as far as access point conflicting/interfering with eachother etc etc?
 
It's time to do a site survey! You can purchase the equipment or maybe your vendor will do it for you,or contract for it.
You NEED a PLAN fast. Adding AP's willy nilly is going to
bite you. You need RF/signal strength mapping fast.
