Subject: wireless hook-up


At the suggestion of Kerem Limon I am writing to inquire about the wireless
drops.  Basically, we have approximately 65 students in the
department.  Not all of the students have computers in their offices, but a
large percentage does.  We are therefore, interested in having a wireless
system for the students.  They need to be able to access the internet,
email, etc.

I know that the number of boxes needed for a wireless systems depends on
the layout of the department.  I know the signal can be blocked.   I am
writing to request that an evaluation be done on the department to see if a
wireless system will work and if so, how many boxes I will need  and the
costs.

Thank you.
