We at JIS have just launched a wireless network. We have a planned phased implementation. HS Science have 180 laptops and 40 tablets in there new science module along with SmartBoards, Digital cameras, and sound system. All our libraries are wireless for school owned laptops: in the HS we are experimenting with 12 Asus EEEPCs as well as wired PCs. Our Language & Learning Center in D-module has a mix of wired and 25 Asus EEEPCs- this will hopefully go live in a week for student wireless use. Some teachers are working with laptops/tablets and will go wireless in the first semester. We plan to open wireless to student owned laptops in semester 2. We are currently evaluating bandwidth utilisation, as well as security and access. For the conference we will have access to wireless for you when you participate with our conference
