[CoLoCo] Broadcom Wireless Issues

[Lee Pepper]

Whats the wireless look like in the dorm..

good way to check is $ iwlist scan

and if you want to attach a file to this you can do a $ iwlist scan >
dorm_survey.txt

I am wondering if they have to many access points on the same channels like
they do here at the University of Wyoming.
