Cornell: Internet and campus-wide WiFi?

<p>Does Cornell have free campus-wide WiFi access? If so, is it fast?</p>

<p>Are the internet access in dorms bandwidth capped? If so, how much per month?</p>

<p>Are we allowed to download music, via LimeWire, on campus?</p>

<p>Are we allowed to torrent movies on campus?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Yes it does, there is both a student one and a guest one, both are all over, i’m not sure if it’s everywhere on campus but most places… </p>

<p>I know my cousin got in trouble at cornell a few years ago because he was downloading stuff on campus. When you’re an upperclassmen you can just get a place in collegetown and get your own isp</p>

<p>i’m kind of wondering about the last two questions too, how strict is cornell on pirating and such. i’m afraid i will have to do all of my seeding at home</p>

<p>torrenting depends on what you torrent…MUSIC and MOVIES and other NEWLY RELEASED media is a NO NO! </p>

<p>stuff like anime and porn is ok…but there’s a 10gb limit (includes both up/download) so dont get happy…</p>

<p>there should be a filesharing network running on the cornell network (discreetly) for all your media needs</p>

<p>guess my torrenting days are over :[</p>

<p>i’d say i would go through 10gb in like 3 days</p>

<p>well you can always pay your 1.25-1.50 (not sure what the rate is now) per GB over 10gb…</p>

<p>Use DC++, guys: [Cornell</a> DC++ Setup Guide](<a href=“http://www.cornelldc.com/]Cornell”>http://www.cornelldc.com/)</p>

<p>Also, since it’s within the Cornell network, basically no one’s going to catch you/get you in trouble and it doesn’t count toward your 10 gig limit.</p>

<p>it’ll be interesting to see how much longer dc++ lasts…</p>
