During the Christmas Break, technology office staff updated Wi-Fi in Mason and Freeman dorms. The work included removing old access points, adding all new ones, and increasing density. The number of wireless access points more than doubled as a result of this project. Combined with the installation of new network switches, the dorm rooms and faculty apartments benefited from improved performance and coverage. This was especially helpful for smartphone users, as phones have a harder time picking up weak wireless signals than do laptops.
