look guys first someone is going to have to pay to get into the park and walk around everywhere suspiciously even to find out what equipment they are using. i would put it up in the ceiling out of site my self. then they need the software. and while there they would have to find out what software they use and break the encryption code then once they did that then they might have a chance. i personnaly wouldnt waste my time and money doing that. id rather be enjoying myself. if i wanted to get into there system i would do it from home. anyways a wirless network isnt anymore secure than walking up to a free rj port and connecting youre laptop and messing around.
i installed a wireless network at palm springs highschool. it was for the portables so that they could have internet access. downloads moved from 80-90k and it was like having wireless dsl. security is great since they have to have the right wireless nic in the first place, second they have to have the software installed, third they must have the encryption code, and fourth they must have internet explorer properly configured to even acces the internet. its great walking around with a laptop and still being connected. i even did all the hardware install my self and lined up the shotguns with a laser pen light from radio shack and got a 94% signal strength which is 14% higher than real world situations. its been up for a little over a year now and is still working with maximum efficiency. Its not hard to set up either in fact since its wireless im pretty sure the guy who installed it at disneyland probbably thought it was a snap. you just need power and place to mount it. there are a few more steps to it but its a peice of cake. and once you have it set up right everyone is a happy camper. If you want to set this kind of stuff up you can practically go down to bestbuy and compusa and buy the equipment for youre home. although the proffessional equipment is better quality and usually state of the art, its still the same concept. if you set it up at home you would say is that all there is to it. plus and disneyworld they probbably didnt want to tear up the ground and buildings to install a regular network. wirless is a way cheaper solution because you save a ton of money on labor. it probbably cost them 1/4 of what it would cost if they did a regular network since cat5 only goes 333 ft. max even though ive gotten it to go alot farther. and fibre optics is way to expensive.
