[I hope this belongs here - if not, lmk and I'll delete the post. I've been mainly lurking here so far]

In a month I'll be in charge of "IT-stuff" in a small office. People are generally happy if there is internet and VoIP is working. I'd like to take the opportunity to learn what I can, while I have the chance. And maybe/hopefully contribute to make it a bit better. For now I want to look into how I should configure wifi and access for office/guests (and devices that are used obv.) Thing is, I don't know where to start and what I actually can do. Do I just google "how to configure wifi in the office?" and go from there? (I'm a bit hesitant to do that since I'll not be able to tell if what I find is good) Is there any good reference material you would suggest? Any suggestions are appreciated.

I studied business informatics (but it's been a while) so I'm not completely clueless (but still clueless hehe).

I'd recommend using a learning site like Udemy.com to learn a topic in more depth. For quick hit, need to know quickly, Youtube videos can be handy, though look at the videos with a critical eye.

I can understand your hesitancy to just go with whatever results you find in Google (especially since Google searches tend to be crap any more), but maybe investing in some Reilly books on topics you can see yourself needing to reference regularly.
