Is anyone offering guest access to those who do not have a computer or wireless device? If so how are you doing that?
Thanks

> From a session I attended last year at the EDUCAUSE Annual Conference, the methods ranged anywhere from complete open access to timed access charged against a credit card. > We are setting up a tiered system. Right now, we have just 2 tiers -- every day users (registered) and unsponsored guests. Anyone who uses the guest network shares a whopping 1Mbs Internet connection and has a limited set of applications that can be used (web/ssl, microsoft/apple patching, imap/pop, dns, dhcp, vpn). If they need more access, they need to request it until we get our "sponsored guest" tier in place. > -Brian > From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [[email protected]] on behalf of Entwistle, Bruce [[email protected]] > Sent: Friday, October 14, 2011 11:39 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Visitor access > We are having a increasing number of parents and prospective students who are visiting to tour the campus requesting access to our wireless network.
