1. i believe the apt complex (school housing) is NOT owned by the university, it is owned by First Worthing (a private company)
2. the access points being set up by students are through DSL and cable modems external to the university access. about 1/2 of the students can not recieve an adequate signal within the buildings and resort to other forms of internet access. the wifi points placed in the apts are just being repeated from building to building there is no hardwire cat5, so the signal/connection progressively gets worse.
