Wireless Netiquette
The wireless LAN is intended to enable mobility, not as a replacement
for hardwired Ethernet connections such as those found in Campus
Computing Sites, University Housing student residence hall rooms, and
offices in University of Nevada, Las Vegas buildings. Since it is a
moderate performance network and a shared resource, some netiquette
applies:
- Do not download large files over the wireless network.
- Do not stream video or audio (larger than 50 Kbps) over the
wireless network
