each wireless access point has 54Mbps shared speed, but what is speed of internet that IIT have procured from ISP, and for sure IIT must be having multiple access points to cover big areas.

1) Internet bandwdith is still costing very high in india.
2) UPS contains battries, which required maintaince, and have defined life, normally after 2-3 years battries are to be replaced, depending upon charging cycles
3) Higher speed access points are avaiable in market, but changing infrastrucre will be adding cost over head.
4) Switches has lmited mac address table, when this table gets filledup, switches does gives problem, and each switch also has pps(packet per second) processing powers, old models have very low processing, again infrastrucre is required.

wireless sucks a big time……… but still i’ve hard time imagining how come i get speeds close to 3-4 MBps on dc sometimes…… but browsing experience is a kind of nightmare…… i can’t even imagine people who really browse… coz my browsing is nothing compared to my peers 😀 …. and congrats that you’ve maintained your posting streak for a straight one week 😛
