1. UMass Amherst says that upgrading the dorms from the older Ethernet network to 802.11n Wi-Fi cost less than upgrading to a newer wired network, but the system also gives students slower communications speeds than a new wired network (such as the one used in research labs and data centers) could give them. Do you agree with this decision? Why or why not?

2. Suppose you're planning to wire a fraternity house for computers. You don't have 12,000 students; you have about 15 who live there and another 15 or so who come for meals and to study. Discuss the pros and cons of wired versus wireless access. Which would you choose? (Assume the connection from the house to its ISP is the same in either case.)
