This location is a business site, Ixia, who is hosting us in their meeting room. Until the meeting starts, there should be someone in the lobby to let you in and bring you to the meeting room - or they'll be back shortly from bringing a group there. After the meeting begins at 7PM, look for a sign on the door with a phone number to call to be let in.

Out of respect for our hosts at Ixia, please remain within the area directly between the entrance, meeting room and rest rooms, unless escorted by an Ixia employee.

There is no public WiFi - but we tentatively have permission to set up our own WiFi -to-cell-modem link.
