Do them in this order

The missions build on each other, so this order saves rework.

  • 1.Mission 4 first — the wired network is the foundation Mission 5 extends.
  • 2.Then Mission 5 — you add wireless to the network you already drew.
  • 3.Then Mission 6 — the message journey follows on from the network.
  • 4.Mission 3 (poster) any time — it is independent.
  • 5.Mission 1 near the end — the manual pulls all the other work together.
  • 6.Mission 2 last — you can only proofread the manual once it is written.
