+==== Pengicon 2012 ====
-  * ** Internet **
+With the move to a new hotel for Penguicon 2012, there were some new challanges, as well as some new advantages. For example, the new hotel has a variable DS3 internet connection, providing up to 48Mbit connection to the internet. Pengucion leased a 20mbit portion of this line for its use this year.
-    * Currently discussing with [[people:teamawesome|Big Dick McGee]] the possibility of a point-to-point solution brought in via rooftop from a nearby carrier.
-    * Alternate Plans...
+However the Hotel did not have any preconfigured convention floor wireless. Their wireless consisited access points in the guest rooms, and 2 acess points in the lobby supporting up to 25 users each. This simply would not do.

Drops were provided by the hotel in the Thomas, Royce, Bugatti, Dearborn, Stutz,  Marquis, and registration for the deployment of lan cables and wireless access points.
-  * ** Wireless Access **
