Re: Internet Connection at Regionals

You will notice that FIRST never gave access to the above venues. There is no way to stop people from accessing networks that are in the air and not protected from outside use. If I were to give wireless access I might consider but I would have a wep key that a mentor would need to pick up and sign a waiver for. The idea would still need to be passed by the regional committee and a volunteer would be needed to process the work. I already have too much on the go at regionals.

I also don't see the need for wireless when wired is provided and computers are available. I know that it might be easier but when other venues have none then we are giving a little extra already. At CR or now GTA we only have high speed because Bell Canada gives us access as part of their sponsorship.
