We have had a few request from one of our dorms where some were not able to sleep due to this LED - we turned them of in the entire dorm. Two times during the semester trouble shooting for our tech were made more difficult and we had to enable them again one time while they were working, and then we turned them back off.
The following semester we enabled them again and have not had any complaint since and they are all on Best Mads Thostrup Director, IT Operations DIS - Study Abroad in Scandinavia From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU] On Behalf Of Jeffrey D.

Curious if others have gone down this road in Residence Halls. We're not really being asked to, but are considering wholesale disabling LEDs on our Cisco APs in the dorms as a quality of life step. Has this caused anyone any pain when it comes to not being able to see the colors on the AP as status indication? Have you actually had requests to disable the LEDs? Overall experience with accommodating or denying the request?
