You're lucky. Our students would complain to their parents and/or the administration and we would have to provide wireless for them.
Our current 802.1X wireless plans for our residences have a WPA2-Enterprise SSID and an open SSID to allow individual mac address registered devices and to allow access to Cloudpath XpressConnect to provision the client for the 8-02.1X SSID.

Our Wii users can't use our wireless .. no wpa2/Enterprise. And we are throttling (or even blocking) video more on wireless than on wired. You'd be surprised how quickly students plug in when they realize that. -Brian ________________________________ From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [[email protected]] on behalf of Hanset, Philippe C [[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, November 10, 2011 8:44 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] College deals with wireless issues If you provide a great wifi coverage and no wired access You shouldn't have to worry about rogues (since there is No port to connect to ;-) Philippe, University.

Students seem to be more than willing to shut off their wireless router after they are made aware of the problem; they honestly don't have a clue about the effects of their personal wireless and the school's. We have similar policies. If we detect a rogue (shows up in our NAC as a NATed client), we quarantine the MAC address of the router. If they connect to their rogue wireless, they get a captive portal telling them to disconnect it! If they then connect directly, they are fine again. Other than us having to mark the MACs, it is self-remediating (and if the MAC returns, it gets the same result, regardless of the jack/location).
