Internet Access

The proposal for the conference tells us this:

The entire campus and building is 802.11b wireless, and the building uses a 100Mbit Ethernet with many available ports to plug into if participants do not have wireless cards.

I’m guessing that folks will still need a TTU login, so you’ll probably need to check-in at the conference before you will actually be able to get online.

According to the Wireless Project homepage, the campus has extended the wireless access to most of the general areas of the campus. From what I have found online, only the first floor common area of the dorm (Stangel Hall) has wireless access.

The the Wireless Project homepage includes configuration information that may be handy once you’re in Lubbock. No way to know for sure, but you might want to print the relevant information just in case. There is also some of the (typical) limitations on what you can do on the TTU network.

If I’m reading the resources correctly, the dorms have wired connections in the rooms, rather than wireless. The hotel has free wireless Internet access according to the Web site.
