THE BAD-FI

Going over my notes one last time before CWDP exam tomorrow. Then on to CWSP! Hopefully, this will keep me from the Bad-Fi! 😁 (at The Wild Goose Meeting House)

Hmmm, the antennas are mostly oriented correctly. Placement on top of a metal air duct in a hallway? Not so much.

HOW YOU LIKE ME NOW?!

Seen a bunch of these floating around the Internets, the Twitters, and such. Figured I’d make a proper one for ya.

Two versions for your social-media sharing pleasure and what not.

You’re welcome.

Merry Christmas from Bad-Fi!

Spotted at Forest Hill MUNI metro station.  Not only is the AP behind a brick wall and the antenna pointed into a gigantic metal box / flat screen television, but there’s also a pigeon on top attenuating the signal.  

Thanks SFMTA! 

THIS. IS. AWESOME.

AP, gingerly placed behind a T.V., on a concrete wall and oh, there a FRIGGIN’ BIRD on it!

Nope, nothing wrong here.

Technically, that Painter’s Tape’s not causing much attenuation if any at all.

But, Boy, is that gonna hurt when it falls on someone’s head.

Maybe it’s a wired-to-wireless bridge, but uses osmosis instead of the PMD?

I’m all outta options here.

Ok, so you figured the antennas should probably be pointing out.

How about in the correct orientation?

How about NOT PLACE THE AP IN A CAGE?

Bad, bad, fi. @shutostrike @wifichef So… you’re saying this isn’t optimal antenna placement? pic.twitter.com/5PW0lBBNx7— Jerry Olla (@jolla) July 18, 2014 PROBLEMS: Metal. Metal! METAL! Wrapped in power supplies. Not sure they looked at…

Bad, bad, fi.

PROBLEMS:

  1. Metal.
  2. Metal!
  3. METAL!
  4. Wrapped in power supplies.
  5. Not sure they looked at the spec sheet for that APs antennas pattern.

    I’m not even going to discuss the cabling job.
