That might be really interesting even for a technoidiot like me. Mostly
I just want to know how I can get and stay connected at PSU. I can
connect instantly and stay connected reliably anywhere else, but after
they did stuff(1) to the wireless network last summer it has become a
pain to get and stay connected.

Maybe if I knew more about how these things work it would help.

(1) Stuff = rearranging the wireless network in ways of which I have no
ken and, apparently, of which PSU's tech support has no ken either.
