Wired or Wireless

If you are an IT professional you should go to new technologies nowadays to impress your boss. so go wireless man.

Depende sa Area. Kung office Area gani nga desktop ang computers, go for wired. Kanang hotel rooms, wired jud na but if naay wireless coverage mas maayo sad.

kanang room nga naa mga guest, pwde na wireless.

But for you out there... Which do you prefer WIFI or Wired?

I'd go for both. WiFi signal won't be that strong in rooms so wired is more preferable, as just what most suggested here. But just to be sure, why not put some box outside as well. Who knows, it might come handy some time in the future. So if all public areas are WiFi ready already, including all the convention halls, then I think it's all set to go.

Maybe also take into consideration that some people might prefer wired over wireless connection, especially in their respective rooms.

isa pa, people who uses internet dira kay mag browse2x lang, dili man jud na mag download..so internet reliability kay dili kaayo issue..thnx

People will still need a good bandwidth because most of these people are using video conferencing, even in their rooms. Or maybe some are watching videos online or even playing online games.

WIRED is still faster than WireLess

ug duol ra imo AP sa rooms ok ra man siguro, mas ideal pod sa AP na a extended antenna, pariha ako nakit an sa manila every corner sa agianan paingon sa mga rooms ang location sa mga antenna.

I am currently working in one of the 4 star hotels here in Cebu and one of my priority projects for this year (200 is to have our Rooms wifi connected. We already have 4 WIFI AP's for public areas and these includes Ground Floor, 2nd, 3rd and 4th Floor using CISCO 802.11ag LWAPP AP's. For our rooms, we already have Modular Box (w/ I/O for data & voice).

These are just some of the things that I need to reconsider:

1. For convenience purposes, WIFI is the answer of course...but as far as speed is concern its just exactly the same.

2. For a more reliable and consistent connection, personally I will go wired...

But for you out there... Which do you prefer WIFI or Wired?

Any suggestions, comments, violent reactions...hehehe...joke. will be greatly appreciated. Thank You in advance...

I go for both and i agree with your plan..
--wired because it is realiable and much stable..
--wireless because users can be mobile ( for laptop users)

For me it is much better that a hotel has both wired and wireless access available for guests. Let's consider the fact that Not all computers have both wired and wireless adapters and not all guests are aware of that. If guest's PC doesn't have a wireless card but has an ethernet adapter, he still have the option to use wired connection and the reason to stay in the hotel. Same with a guest who doesn't have a ethernet adapter but has a wireless card, he still have the option to connect thru wireless and still have the reason to stay in the hotel.

for me, since i'm always on an out of town trip and been to a lot of hotels nationwide, it would be better that you
will use wireless internet. First, it will provide convenience to a lot of customers specially those who always bring with
them wifi laptops. Second, I think the cost would be a lot higher when you have to install network ports on each room/area
of the hotel with network cables. Third, its always good marketing strategy when your hotel is a wifi zone specially if
it includes the room.

I hope this can help you.

naa pa pahabol.

If the hotel is customer-oriented and won't mind with the cost of this project, it would be better that you
should install both wired and wireless internet connection. This will provide convenience to customers for net
access both for non-wifi laptop users and wifi laptop users.
