[Scale-planning] [Tech] wifi SSID WAS Re: Signage

[Zach Underwood]

Before the password change on Saturday it was about 30-40 after the
password change it was like 5-8. Tech and AV are the only ones that need to
be connected to a different network since we access devices on the wired
Network. Everyone else on staff for the most part only access internet
address.
