I think students are mainly only still hooking up to the wired ports in the rooms to watch our TV service, which is delivered via IP multicast. And even that usage is down quite a bit since we don't have on-demand streaming or DVR-type functionality, so most of the kids end up using Hulu or other similar services to watch the shows they want. Plus the great majority of the wired ports were installed in ~1993-1994, so they're all Cat3 wiring and limited to 10Mbps. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 9.9.1.287 wj8DBQFJ8f4FDlQHnMkeAWMRAumTAKCFtSbbC3L5OymQ+fSHNm8pV3XMiACgjx/c gv8l7P9tBe3Qmo5+YZkI8sk= =mvu4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Julian Y.
