Hi,

It seems supporting a large number of clients is difficult. Ideally more than 30-40 clients per AP is not a good solution for single radio (b/g) APs.

Also, deploying too many APs in a single area can add problems to the RRM or channel allocation.

I suggest you can start by: (basically working on paper)
1. working out how many APs will be required for coverage alone.
2. Find out areas where the client usage will be large and add additional APs to that area. Take care to not add more than 3 APs in same overlapping area as it does not add much of practical use more than that.

Based on these you might get a quantitative analysis.
I also suggest adding a few 11a stations/APs and encourage some clients to use 11a spectrum if possible.

Rgrds,
Kiran
