Hello From Kansas

[LauraS]

Hi!  My name is Laura Smyth and I'm a Network Admin for a company with around 50 warehouses/locations across the central and eastern parts of the US. Each location is equipped with a Meraki Firewall, Switches, WAPs, and some have cameras.  It's great to be able to monitor and manage them all in one place.  I'm looking forward to learning tips and tricks from others in the community.

My fun fact is that I have 2 dogs and 3 horses, the youngest of the horses is a BLM adopted Mustang that I have trained from the beginning.

Welcome @LauraS hope you enjoy it here, there is plenty of help available, for the networking equipment, not so much for the horse training!  What dogs do you have?  We have a (mostly) Labrador and a Pug/Jack Russell cross.

Thank you cmr, I have a 3 yr old Yellow Lab female and a rescue female Bassett so we don't know her exact age but we're thinking around 6-7 yrs.  Labs are a favorite in my house.  Between my husband & I this makes the 10th Lab we've had over the years.

Wow, we are on our first, he's a black (mostly) Lab and definitely a most excellent dog.  We had Cockapoo's before and they were also great 😎

We've had a couple of Beagles in the past, and 1 Chihuahua.  Beagles are alright if they are trained correctly from the get go, otherwise if they catch a scent they are gone, lol!  The Chihuahua was just too darn tiny for our liking (can't count how many times she nearly got stepped on from being under our feet) but she sure was a good snuggler.

Welcome @LauraS I am sure your knowledge in working with Wifi in warehouses will be useful as that if one area that seems to pop up often. 

[LauraS]

Thank you.  WiFi in warehouses can be tricky stuff.

Thank you, I'm sure I will find lots of useful information.
