Chelsea Inn open access ‘net suite overhauled

The open internet access suite at the Chelsea Inn in Easton, provided and managed by Bristol Wireless, has been completely overhauled. The addition of an extra station brings the total to three now, all of which are newer-style Compaq thin clients providing access to the server upstairs via LTSP (Linux Terminal Server Project). The new stations are smaller, so the whole install is now at desk level and therefore in much less risk of damage by the usual pub shenanigans. Built-in sound and accessible USB key access is now standard.. The wireless AP has been moved downstairs and is now mounted on the wall, correcting the coverage problems that were previously experienced in areas due to the thick concrete ceiling joists. Ben Green updated the software on the LTSP server, whilst Lloyd Cohen carried out the rest of the work.
