<p>I'm taking an infocus seminar at Northwestern, and I'm planning on playing a lot of League of Legends so I was wondering how good the internet is at the Ayers residence hall.</p>

<p>I don't have an ethernet cord, so if the wifi sucks and I have bad ping, I'll lag a bunch and the other players will rage at me. I have severe, chronic low self-esteem, and I don't want to have a panic attack in front of my roommate if my teammates start to insult me.</p>

<p>Please respond ASAP, I leave in a week. Thank you!</p>

<p>Not going to lie, it’s kind of crappy. I would suggest getting an ethernet cord. You’ll also end up angering everyone else in the dorm if you’re hogging up all the wifi.</p>

<p>If your self-esteem is dependent upon the quality of the internet, it would seem worth the $10-15 investment in an ethernet cord that can be gotten at pretty much any office supply store.</p>

<p>To piggyback off this question, do you think the Wifi is good enough for Spotify/Pandora? I’m pretty sure I won’t be doing anything too intensive, but those two don’t always work in some places with bad Wifi.</p>

<p>When it works, it’ll be fine for streaming whatever. It occasionally cuts out for a few minutes, though. Bit inconvenient.</p>
