If you're looking for a hardware aided solution take a look at MRT-Pro and PC-3000 I've heard good things about them and I've dealt with a repair shop which was using PC-3000 Chinese clone and it worked just fine.

Avast has a really good antivirus engine and it's free. recently they've launched a cloud service to make able to control all your antivirus installs.. worth a shot. I've also used Kaspersky.. very good AV and I didn't have problems after installing it.. But the management console isn't really great.

If you have videolan installed for playing videos you can use that to record computer screen as well

The title says it all. I tried to uninstall it using the following method this guy used but for installation and I didn't succeed. Any ideas? GFI EndPoint Security Agent -install fun & games - Ian Lockhart at myITforum

Can Ruckus ZoneDirector 1100 (or any controller for that matter) prioritize user/SSID traffic per client down to each application session running on the client machine? Let’s say a user is on a video conference call and at the same time transferring a huge file to the file server, will I be able to give the video conference traffic a higher priority so his call won't drop?

noted. I have a policy in the school which not allow teachers to bring thier own WiMAX/WIFI routers, which of thoses systems I mentioned can help me locate rouge access points better.

Thank you guys for the input, I would like to get more of a comparative opinion and if you've used these controllers or access points what was the strength and weakness that you've found?

I'm about to decide on which brand to go with for our wireless solution. But I would like to know which system would you implement if you were in my situation as I would like to compare between those systems, maybe I've missed something. I hope you guys can help me.

Thanks, I'll test the CRM (drupal) solution since it seems sensible at that point and see how it goes.

Well... Since we have a full time windows application developer, we have our own developed in-house VB.NET and MSSQL based MIS. This makes things easier for me, I can ask the developer to pull the data nightly/hourly in bulk or I can just ask him to connect directly to the website's database to pull the information as-needed. Since there seems to be no practical ready-to-use solution for this problem I think I should create my own, now I have two problems. - Which software/framework should I use to create this system? - How should I go about securing the parent access to his information? I have some thoughts that I would like to share with you regarding these two questions, for the software that I might use, I have two routes, the first route is using CMS like drupal or MODx, the second route is using CRM like CiviCRM. The second issue is a bit complicated since we don't have the website published yet! thats why I am thinking maybe I could send the parent an SMS security token to allow him access to his information but I didn't go about how to impelement that yet.

I am looking for a free way integrate admission and parent information update into our current website. I currently have joomla powered website but I am ok if joomla won't help with that since I didn't publish the website yet. I have the parents' info of this school year in a database stored locally on MSSQL server and I would like to import this data to the new system to allow the parents to update their info as needed and to enable them for admission for the next school year. any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I found my notes on configuring WDS on DD-WRT, thought it might be useful to you. This is the configuration of the second router but the same settings applies from second till nth router. setup>basic setup> wan setup connection type: disabled stp: enabled router name: WDS1 hostname: domain name: Network setup Local IP Address: 10.15.0.2 subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 gateway:10.15.0.1 local dns: 10.15.0.1 assign wan port to switch : tick DHCP server : disabled Use DNAMasq for DHCP : untick Use DNSMasw for DNS : untick NTP client: enable Zone: UTC+3 serverIP/name: 10.15.0.1 Setup>Advanced routing operation mode : Gateway interface: lan & wlan Wireless>Basic settings Wireless mode : AP Wireless network mode: Mixed Wireless Network Name: Hotspot2 Wireless channel : 6-2.437 GHz Wireless SSID Broadcast : Enable Network Config.: Bridged Wireless>Wireless Security security mode : Disabled Wireless> Advanced Settings CTS protection mode: disabled Frame Burst: disable AP Isolation : disable Wireless>WDS wireless MAC LAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX MikroTik LAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX WDS2 LAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX WDS3 Service>Services DNSMasq: Disable SES/ AOSS button: use this for turning off radio: Enable Turn radio off at boot: disable Security>Firewall SPI Firewall : Disable nothing ticked NAT / QoS> UPnP UPnP Service : Disable Administration>Management web access : Http Enable Info Site: Enable Infor Site Password protection Info Site Mac Masking : Enable Overclocking : 200 MHz I have changed every router SSID to different name for troubleshooting purposes but after I settled down on settings and everything was working probably I changed them all to the same SSID to let my users roam from one WAP to another without dropping the connection

The school administration think that this is too much for what they expected to pay for network infrastructure, guess I'll have to get some alternative plans ready in case I can't really convince them of the benefits of getting cisco equipments. In the mean while could you guys tell me what are the options in case I wanted to buy something like HP or Netgear? and which models will be equivalent to cisco proposition?

First you need to decide how you're going to connect your routers together. Check this link for info on that. I chose WDS since my routers are close to each other and I didn't want to use wires at all. Check the following links for information and tell us how it goes with you and which mode did you choose: Linking Routers - DD-WRT Wiki WDS multiple router setup - DD-WRT Wiki
