Don't forget the gamers (since we're talking about dorms and not offices). =
They also rely on low latency, and will generally be the first to complain =
when there's an issue.

Subject: Re: [RESNET-L] Survey on ResNet Services
Greetings,
I just wanted to weigh-in on this idea. I know that a lot of folks see=
m to be of the impression that 'wireless is all we need', but I regularly h=
ave to connect physically to get reasonable latency and throughput. From a =
bandwidth perspective, switching to wireless-only is basically the same as =
replacing switches with half-duplex hubs.
Sure, wireless is convenient, and it's great for casual email/browsing=
/remote access users (including, unfortunately, the managers who tend to ma=
ke these decisions). Those of us who need to move chunks of data around or =
who rely on low-latency responsiveness find themselves marginalized in wire=
less-only settings. For instance: RDP, SSH, and X11 over even moderately bu=
sy wireless connections are often barely usable, and waiting an hour for a =
600MB Debian ISO seems very... 1997.
