Just had a call from a non-student asking about wireless access in the library. When I told him he had to be a USF student he asked if he was allowed to use his own “hotspot” wireless connection via Verizon in the library. I’ve never heard of getting in that way. Would it interfere with our wireless?
Systems response:
He would need to be sure that it is locked down properly, and running on a channel that does not interfere with ours. Since it would be impossible to regulate this effectively, I would tell him that he needs to go outside of the library to use it, such as on the breezeway. If we begin to allow this technology, it will interfere with student use of our wireless eventually, even if not on this occasion. It really depends upon how it is set up, which we cannot control.
