WISE Campus Relies on Meru Networks Wireless Technology
Almost immediately after going live with the wireless network, the College’s IT personnel were flooded with calls from users frustrated with the unreliability and poor performance of the network. Overwhelmed by the volume of complaints, the College sought specialist support from Synaptics Solutions, a systems integrator with expertise in the design, deployment and supporting of large scale wireless networks within academia. After a thorough survey and review of the system, Synaptic Solutions identified a number of issues that were contributing to the poor performance that Filton users were experiencing. At Synaptics Solutions’ suggestion, Filton College decided to invest in a Meru Networks wireless network. Synaptic Solutions began the changeover by disconnecting the legacy equipment thought to be causing the networking problems. Shortly thereafter, they began deploying the Meru Networks networking kit

Plymouth College of Further Education
The college issued a Request for Tender inviting suppliers to submit a proposal to design, build and implement a scalable, cost effective Wireless LAN network that wouldn't easily date for up to 600 members of staff over two campuses 1.25 miles geographically separate. The solution of choice would need to accommodate a variety of different applications ranging from a presentation to a multimedia stream from the Internet. Key factors influencing their decision would be cost effectiveness, reliability and speed of implementation. The new wireless solution needed to seamlessly integrate with their existing 100mb wired network and crucially needed to be up and running in time for the start of term.
