<p>Does NU have wireless internet services campus-wide? :O Like, I really want to be able to study while underneath a tree or somewhere else outside the buildings.</p>
<p>Also, how fast is the internet inside the dorms? DSL speed or dial-up speed? Does anyone still play internet games? I think I'll probably end up not playing since... CHICAGO!!! xD I'm really excited about checking out Chicago because I've been in California for over 10 years now. </p>
<p>Thanks in advance for the help. :D</p>
<p>As of next year, all dorms will have wireless, as will almost all classrooms. The green areas are not to my knowledge getting them, but in all honesty, for about 66% of the year, you're not going to want to be outside anyway (hence why they're unlikely to bother with that).</p>
<p>The speed is much faster than anything you have at home, but not amazing.</p>
<p>Is DC++ used much at Northwestern?</p>
<p>No. And as for network gaming, most subnetworks are limited in scope to your building, so if you're looking for a CS server in network, live in a bigger dorm.</p>
<p>arbiter, will it only be the lounges/rooms adjacent to the lounges that have wireless next year, as it is in elder now, or will all rooms in all dorms have wireless?</p>
<p>this is a huge pet peeve for me about northwestern</p>
<p>All dorms are set, from my understanding, to go completely wireless.</p>
<p>^ Sounds good to me. And it's also pretty nice that they might be extending the hours for the library and considering renovating Norris.</p>
