But I'm trying to make this as easy as possible. I've never used a wireless range extender, but maybe I'll just buy one and try it out. When I said "general public", I should have said "congregation". This is for members of the church. That could be several hundred people. The guest account would be password protected, but I have realistic expectations of how secret that password will be. In any case, the church is in a semi-rural area and is surrounded by empty land on all sides, so there is no general public except for the people in the church. My worst case scenario is probably some kind of event at the church where 100 people with smart phones all want to check their email. Most of the time it'll just be 3 office computers being used for church business. -Rob
