Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Wireless in Residence Halls

[Karl Reuss]

	We had the APs for our highrise dorms located in the hallways which was 
convenient for installation and maintenance, but it made for a poor RF 
design.  Lots of co-channel interference and dynamic power management 
problems.  Moving them into student rooms solved this, although 
coordinating the installation with the residents was a hassle.  We have 
not seen an increase in loss, damage or troubles.  Every once in a great 
while we get a user who is concerned with health aspects of having an AP 
in their room.
