What other equipment is needed to host a website?

I don't remember what the owner listed. And he has listed what they're doing to upgrade FR before election night. You could ask him.

I just came off a course on introductory internet architecture and security. There are only servers, routers, switches, hubs (not really used anymore), and then the individual’s computer for the internet. (well, there is the fiber connecting it all)

And websites exist solely on servers.

So the only thing left, outside a server to upgrade is more fiber to connect the server to ‘teh interwebz’.

Well, unless he’s going to buy a new website format or is contracting out to a webdesigner to custom-make one.
