Our dorms are similar. We use HP WESM wireless stuff at the moment and let
it take care of itself. Our installation was not scientific. We generally
placed two or three radios in the hallways and one in the dorm common areas.
We've only had to add one or two radios to areas where coverage was
insufficient. We have about 25-30 students per floor. The dorms are also
wired.
