Today I was tasked with cleaning up the mess of someone's network closet, but the catch was, that it was during the middle of the business day. Luckily it snowed heavily last night, so business was slow. I took some photographs to show the progress.

As you can see that I had my work cut out for me. But being that it was during office hours, I could not just rip everything out, and replace everything perfectly, so I had to compromise. Get everything as neat as I could with as little disruption as possible.

| Here I mounted the cable modem, 3 DSL modems, swtich and WAP on the wall. |
 |
| Here you can see the Linksys WAP. I added the jack cover, the wire was just hanging there. |
 |
| About halfway thru with straightening the wiring. |
 |
| Most of the wiring straightened up. |
 |
| Almost there. |
 |
| The asterisk box crashed for some reason, the nettop has been added in its place. |

 |
| Everything is starting to look good now. |
