To help TAG get an idea of how current students are using the internet on campus, Cal over in Network Infrastructure sent me some quick stats on student connections (from live snapshots taken at around 4:30pm on a weekday).
Student connections to the campus network:
Wireless: 2617
Wired: 181
Game consoles (wired): 103
OS/device breakdown of all of the students using wireless (from a slightly later snapshot):
Mac: 914
Windows: 1074
iPhone: 499
iPad: 54
iPod: 1
Linux: 67
No huge surprises here, but it’s interesting to see just how much our students rely on wireless – and it’s good to know that we have this kind of data available.
(Thanks, Cal!)
