Here at the Connecticut Science Center, our wireless access points are setup 
with 3 SSID's.  Two are hidden and one is public.  We have allocated a certain 
about of bandwidth just for the public wireless VLAN.

Hi,
For those of you who offer public wi-fi, do mind sharing how you made it 
happen? What were the barriers you had to address? Visitors are asking for free 
wi-fi at SAM but our IT department is holding back because of resource issues, 
I think it has to do with bandwidth.

At Brooklyn Museum our philosophical rationale was largely community-based, but 
our funding rationale was mostly about collections database access for staff in 
storerooms and galleries--there was sort of a three-pronged approach of

* VPN access to network from anywhere in the building
* gallery technology like kiosks and handhelds and ...
* general public access.

Hello all,

For those of you that offer public Wi-Fi at your institution what were your 
reasons for doing so? Was it just as a perk to your visitors or was there 
something more to it?

Thanks,
Jeff
