Well, it's that time of year again ....
the time when we get calls from a handful of faculty who want the
ability to disable the wireless access point that covers their
classroom during specific class periods (they also want cellular
coverage disabled during those times -- yeah, right ......). When I
point out that the AP that covers their classroom may also provide
coverage for the one next door, or that with a controller-based
architecture, shutting off one access point would likely just increase
the signal coverage area of adjacent APs, the response I usually get
back is "well, I KNOW that other universities are doing it, so ....
FIX IT".
So, let me ask my biennial question: what ARE other universities doing
in this regard? I was specifically given U of Michigan as an
example. Anyone know what they're doing? Any successful
implementation details from anyone dealing with this issue are
welcome. And yes, I am biting my tongue to not say "teach more
engagingly".
Thanks in advance!
