I cant really see the wi-fi part of this
..but it has its roots

David Blaines’ home network… exposed
Now if only there were some type of “wireless” system that could eliminate all that clutter
You know, TV remotes are wireless. Why can’t those smart computer boffins use that technology?
Wha’t the problem? This is just the typical configuration that the D-Link support guy in India tells you to use!
That’s why they call it the interweb.
let’s buy this guy a few “wlan-wires” for tree-fiddy!
It’s one of those routers that make it easy to bring the web to your office
I bet you they download a lot of movies there. All of them suspense.
Actually, I’ve seen a similar config, but it was on a networking lab at a technical school.
Somehow it lasted for quite a while without some idio… “it looks ugly, I must rearrange it” type disconnecting everything.
In addition to the computers, they’ve also managed to network in the printer, the industrial stapler and a case of copier paper.
Why would you need to network the printer if you already networked the paper?
Hey, in these tough times, you gotta do all the networking you can.
How would you get toner on to the paper if the printer wasn’t connected to it in some way?
I once worked in an office where, because we’d been forced into a new office that hadn’t been upgraded for our telecomm needs, had ISBN and phone hanging all over… from the drop-ceiling tiles… with zip ties and tape. I wish so bad I’d taken a picture b/c it was like 100 kludges in one room. My phone was plugged into an outlet 40 ft. away so the cord went straight up from the phone to the ceiling, across, and then down. Could not move the phone or it would just dangle.
“had ISBN and phone hanging all over”
I’m with you on the phones; I’ve seen offices like that. But how do you get the International System of Book Numbers to hang all over?
That’s a Good Point…!
If this is what it takes to get decent wireless signal, then so be it.
Well, that, and replacing the switch with something that actually does wireless.
Not to worry, they have only lost 2 employees to strangulation, and they were easily replaced.
I LOVE how organized everything but the wiring is.. envelopes, paper.. but the wiring looks like it’s exploded into the room
For best results, place wireless router near center of room.
The new definition of “corner office”.
Capital caption – O Caption! My Caption!
It’s fun to look at it and pretend that the white wires are actually Force lighting. “WIFI! UNLIMITED WI-FIII!”
That’s nothing compared to my house. I guess I need to go take some pictures…
During the fire investigation,it was determined there was a mid-air explosion of unknown origin.
Dave the IT guy’s fascination with Spiderman was readily apparent. Just wait until they upgrade to the 14 port model.
14 ports? Bah. 48 ports is what they need. Because then they can run several spare cables to every user, in case someone breaks a cable or two untangling himself. Also, those larger models are heavier, so you need more cables to hang them from the ceiling in the first place.
You’ll have to excuse our network girl. She makes Dreamcatchers on the side.
Where’s the kludge? This is just gravity! Shenanigans!!
Wow I didn’t *reeeally* get a kick out of this one but the comments are so much better than usual. Thanks a lot all of you
ya all say wireless wireless and how the heck is this gonna stick in the air without the wires???
well I answer that myself: Just the same way as a brick won’t… (thanks, late Mr. D.Adams)
This reminds me vaguely of Aricebo. Maybe it’s a do-it-yourself SETI project?
maybe he comes from a region where they have frequent flooding
This is what happens to office supplies that misbehave.
This router is always in the web, even when it’s off power.
We got to fire that IT Guy he knows nothing about wifi he is hard wiring everything.
This is how skynet realy started
Office Kudzu!
