Funny you noticed that too. We had a Wifi project in the works and so I called them last year, to ask about their solution because I was impressed with the performance for an installation of that size and crown density. (Yes, I tested it while I was there). Unfortunately they would tell me absolutely nothing. "For security reasons." I wasn't surprised, but if anyone else has any better luck, I'd be interested too. Took about 20 minutes of calling around to get that answer I think. Their IT people at that level are not easy to get without inside information.

It covers all the Disney Hotels, parks (I believe with the exception of the water parks) and the Disney Springs district. From the MAC address of a couple of WAPs, it appears they use Aruba. The coverage is impressive, and the connectivity is good; although reliability is decent, but I can forgive them knowing what a humongous task it takes to deploy such a massive network. Does anybody know any more details about how this network was deployed? I looked and looked for places where I could see WAPs but didn't see a thing. However they did it, it is impressive. Oh BTW, I did enjoy the park too. :) Hector Rios Louisiana State University ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/discuss. ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/discuss.
