You are responsible for completing ALL of these labs. You must submit a [[Franske Lab Report Format|lab report]] for each topic/chapter (you should combine multiple labs from the chapter/topic into a single report). If you work with a partner on a lab you only need to submit a single lab report for the two of you but it must have both your names on it. Each lab report is worth up to 20 points. This falls into the Labs/Homework category of your course grade.

* Lab: 5.2.1.7: Install Windows 7
#** NOTE: During the account creation process use the name "ITC Admin" and the password "Password123!" be sure to write them down and have your partner write them down as well because you will need them again later in the course.
** NOTE: When you install be sure to leave at least 10 GB of free space at the end of the drive so that you can do lab 5.2.4.7 '''Make absolutely certain that you are installing on the larger partition (which should be towards the beginning of the drive) and that the smaller 10GB partition is at the end of the drive. Failure to make sure this is setup correctly at this point will probably mean in some future lab you will need to reinstall Windows.'''

Once you let go the router should reboot into it's default configuration.
#* 11.1.3.4 Lab - Work with Task Manager
** NOTE: Make sure to select that you have attached to a "Work" network and not a "Public" network in Windows. If you select public network the Windows firewall will block several things that you need to have open for filesharing, etc. in this lab.

** NOTE: Some of the screens in this lab, in particular the basic wireless configuration pages, will look different than those in the lab due to using a different router which only supports 2.4GHz and not 5GHz wireless. You will be setting the SSID and enabling wireless with auto channel selection but will not be able to set some of the more specific wireless settings.
#* 11.4.3.2 Lab - Disk CLI Commands
* Lab 8.1.2.14: Test the Wireless NIC In Windows

You will need to temporarily connect the Internet connection on the router to the ITCnet jack at your desks (yellow assuming you are in B109 or green in B107) so that you have an Internet connection working for some parts of this lab. Please disconnect the Internet connection as soon as you are done testing the connection and before going on to any additional labs.
#* 11.4.5.3 Lab - Other Useful Commands
** NOTE: When you use the "net view" command you'll probably just see one computer because right now you only have one computer attached to your router. Now might be a good time to attach your desktop computer to the router as well (using a wired connection) and try running the net view command again to see the second computer.
