FAIIIIL at trac. 23:34 ( rrix) Zach says ~4000$ between hardware, install and bandwidth if we decide to have it wired in... Seems prohibitively high 23:35 ( rrix) However, if he can get a contract to provide them internet year round, say 20mbit, it would be very easy for us to bump that to 30 or 50mbit for the few days we need 23:35 ( rrix) Hence us putting him in contact with Marriot 23:35 ( rrix) The other option that he suggested, which may or may not work out, is bringing the wireless to the Marriot using Microwave from the brickyard building 23:36 ( rrix) That entails us having roof access to the main brickyard biulding (not the Artisan building where we have rooms reserved), and running cable between the two biuldings, as well as probably installing more APs to accomodate us at the Marriot 23:36 ( rrix) It also means that we'd have to get approval from ASU IT, which may be a bit weary of us shipping their net off campus, even if we are on a segregated network 23:38 ( rrix) So, if we can't get the microwave option, or he can't get a long-term contract with the Marriot, I'm thinking that we should go with jsmith's contact -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/19#comment:10> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning _______________________________________________ fudcon-planning mailing list fudcon-planning@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fudcon-planning
