===== Results =====

The IT Meetup was mainly around the infrastructure of the Kuckucksmuehle. We installed ethernet for two rooms and setup a central patch panel locker. It contains a switch that allows us to use the VPN for all WIFI access points.
We decided to shut down the open (un-encrypted password-less) WIFI and now have usable coverage in all rooms of the house.
