QUESTIONANSWERNAMECOMMENTS
2
What is the power situation like? Should we bring power strips?Power will be an issue in this room. We will need extension cords and power strips for sure.Jeremy Grajales
3
Do we need adapters to use the projector?No, everything is set up. If you have a VGA out port on your laptop, you are good to go.Jeremy Grajales
4
How do you access the wifi?NEIU Wifi is publicJeremy Grajales
5
What network restrictions seem to be in place? (Check for both attendees and staff, if they have have separate networks, such as EDU and EDU-Guest.)I believe the previous answer answers this question. Everyone may access NEIU's public wifi. Please confirm that this answers the question.Jeremy Grajales
6
Does SSH work?SSH works for me on NEIU's wifi in room B152Jeremy Grajales
7
Does IRC work?NO. NEIU blocks IRC ports. However a good alternative is to use IRC with KiwiIRC a free IRC alternative that runs in the browser and is not affected by NEIU's firewall (confirmed).Jeremy Grajaleshttps://kiwiirc.com/client
8
Does doing a git clone over the git:// protocol work?Cloning over git protocol is not working for me over wifi in room B152. I advise cloning over https (which works) or another protocol.Jeremy GrajalesWill this be a problem? -Jeremy
9
Do websites over http:// work?YesJeremy Grajales
10
Do webites over https:// work?YesJeremy Grajales
11
What kind of bandwidth do the networks seem to give? (A good way to find out is to just use a normal speed testing site like http://www.speedtest.net/ .)67.77 Mbps DOWN - 45.04 Mbps UP (Results vary. But I believe we have any bandwidth needs covered).Jeremy GrajalesWOW - Next time I need to download a multi-GB file, I think it will be faster for me to just come to school to do it. -Jeremy
12
Where will we set up food?In the back of the room I presume. There is nothing in the room that says we can't have food. I believe this restriction is only for rooms with student computers (labs).Jeremy GrajalesSee images of B152 uploaded here (must request access).
13
Where are nearby bathrooms and water fountains, if they exist?A short distance down the hall along with vending machines.Jeremy Grajales
14
What restrictions on movement around the area will be in place? (e.g., will people have to be let in a locked door by a student at some point?)No restictions. Wheelchair accessible, no stairs (we are on the ground level). And the door should remain unlocked when we open the room.Jeremy Grajales
15
What signs will need to be placed to direct students through the building and to the room?We should be able to put a sign near both entrances to building B and a sign on the bulletin board in the hallway.Jeremy Grajales
