 +=== Current Setup: ===
 +  * SSID: LansingMakersNetwork
 +  * Password: Written on the wall in many places around the space
 +  * The old SSID of LansingMakers2 still works, however it's using new hardware, this will be deprecated eventually.
 +There is also a LansingMakersGuest (currently this SSIS is not configured properly, so don't try and use it yet)
  
 +You'll notice there are three access points now, 1 on each floor.  ​
 +  1. The one in the shop is located in the middle of the room.
 +  2. The on the main floor is located to the right of the stage area
 +  3. The one on the 3rd floor is located on the back wall near the electronic storage.
 +
 +If you see any of these access points with the light showing anything other than a solid Green, it would be helpful if you can report that here as well.
 +
 +Please do not plug in the old Linksys/​Cisco access point, it is using the same SSID and will cause problems.
