What is my best network option?

Written by admin on December 26, 2009 – 4:53 pm -

I’m currently setting up a network system for my business. I have 6 small offices in 2 buildings. 3 offices in one building and 3 other offices in another building. The buildings are separated by a small lane less than 20 meters wide. Each office has its own telephone connection. I employ 11 staff, each will have access to his or her own desktop. That’s 12 desktops altogether, including one for me. Here’s what I need to know:
1) If I set up a LAN for each building, how can I best connect the 2 LAN? Or should I just set up one LAN? If so, how to best connect the desktops from 2 different buildings?
2) Can a wireless network cover the range of the 2 buildings?
3) Can I just get a single server powerful enough to act as a file server, print server, email server and application server? Or should I get an individual server for each function?

Thanks.

1) By wiring it up (go through the ceiling tiles or under the ground if possible). Connect through VPN if necessary from the other office.
2) It is high suggested that you should not use a wireless network for business purposes because of the possibility of intrusion / packet sniffing. Have as much control over the security of your network as you can, do not take unnecessary risks.
3) You probably would want at least 2 servers for redundancy purposes. One server _can_ do all of the above but it would be wise to go with more than one since one server will be overused (space/speed) easily and it is important to have a server to use for redundancy purposes (ie. if the other one fails) because you do not want your staff of 12 to loose all of their work since the file server is not working etc…

how to start a small business at home at age 15 ?

Written by admin on December 18, 2009 – 8:35 am -

I’m 15 years old and I’m trying to make some money from my house and i was wondering if some people could help me my dad already told me he would give me about $1,000 to help me start and i don’t know if ill need that much so i was hopping i could get some ideas

Additional Details

1 second ago
Im thinking of selling electronics video game systems, Cameras, Mp3 players, Computers, Telephones but i kno i cant start selling the expensive stuff so i would need some ideas on where to start and i would also like to sell video game cds so if u could give me some help (i dont know how to reply on posts or anything i just created the yahoo account)

Your best bet would probably be something like lawn care or an internet business. Anything else where you sell products out of your house or delivery would be likely subject to taxes and all that legal mumbo-jumbo if you intend to start advertising around town. If physical work isn’t your forte’, eBay businesses are wonderful. Perhaps the most difficult thing for you is going to be finding a product that you can sell with a markup (profit) that people can’t get cheaper elsewhere. That means pretty much eliminating places like Wal-Mart as your source for product. Finding out what you want to sell means looking less at what YOU’RE interested in and what the CUSTOMER would be interested in. It’s about your market base. You have to give customers a reason to shop from you rather than the other guy. This usually means getting the correct product at the lowest price. Do some snooping around and see what people are leaving town to buy. Since you’re so young, you really couldn’t advertise like most businesses would, since you’d have to file for business charters, etc, so you’d pretty much have to rely on word of mouth. Other than that, it’s pretty hard to say what will sell without knowing where you live.

And don’t pay attention to those replies talking about visit these websites to make $3000 a day or whatever, they’re scams.

Office Telephone systems?

Written by admin on December 2, 2009 – 7:54 pm -

I have a small business with 5 employees. Each needs their own phone, I want one number for the office with different extensions for each employee. Do I need to purchase some sort of switch for my business, or can i simply splice all the lines together and let the telephone service provider take care of the rest?

sure, you can just parallel all the phones, you need to remember that your telephone is the same as your front door. Callers judge your business by your phones. If a customer is turned away by a cheap phone system, it is the same as a locked front door.

Your choice….

What you need is called a KSU - Key Service Unit.
You have 5 extension so you need a small KSU.

You choose the KSU by the lines and stations you need. A "308" would be 3 lines, 8 stations.

Check out www.hello-direct.com for Panasonic systems that you can install yourself.

Also, Panasonic makes a nice "KSU-less" system. These are normally limited to 2 or MAYBE 3 lines. They allow you to HOLD, INTERCOM, CONFERENCE, but not much more.

A KSU allows you to transfer calls, as well as hold, conference, intercom and direct calls to different stations.
