This actually wouldn't be a bad thing for places like the stadium and dean dome if we can manage channel interference -- jg From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU]<mailto:[mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU]> On Behalf Of Dewitt Latimer Sent: Thursday, July 21, 2011 12:29 PM To: WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU<mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU> Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] AT&T WiFi As a person who travels to many campuses, I can tell you that having my iPhone auto-associate with a campus WiFi is a whole lot nicer than having to bug my hosts to sponsor me for a guest wireless account. So I think the real way to look at this is (1) how many guests do you have to your campus, (2) do you care about them, (3) is your wireless guest registration system self sponsored and simple, or a real PIA? You don't necessarily have to overlay the AT&T ssid over your whole campus either. You can hit (say) the performing arts, campus hotel and conference, etc. But that's more of a political outcome than technical. If you go through the hassle of a couple of buildings, you might as well do them all. Also, AT&T almost always brings their own commodity bandwidth to the bargaining table. So depending on how many guests you have anyway, you can off load some of their data to their pipe. -d On Thu, Jul 21, 2011 at 12:16 PM, Lee H Badman <lhbad...@syr.edu<mailto:lhbad...@syr.edu>> wrote: Ryan- Do you feel there has been any real value to OSU, or any downside?

Upper management is looking into it here. My understanding is they will use our existing Aruba infrastructure to propagate the signal. Curious for input from others on direct experience and technical considerations (in general and as relates to Aruba specifically).
