Description
To describe how we have been using Raspberry Pi devices for remote eduroam support engagements to provide a remote-engineer controlled wifi enabled device in the proximity of customer's Wireless LAN. Such support is hard to do well remotely as testing becomes a significant hurdle. CARPi (Consultancy Assistance Raspberry Pi) solves this neatly, cheaply, and securely.
This was even more important during the Sars-Cov-2 pandemic and various lockdowns were imposed as the devices allowed our engineers to assist multiple member organisations quickly and easily and, most of all, safely and without the need to travel.
