I find it hard to believe that IPhones by themselves added a surge of new demand to the wireless access points at Duke, but could it be related to the bandwidth that the IPhones need? I'm not as tech-savvy as others out there, so those in the know can chime in with their thoughts.
It wasn't me!
If it's this bad now, I couldn't imagine the wireless apocalypse that would have happened had school been in session.
We may well have had something misconfigured. It sounds like the iPhones are continually being handed an incorrect network configuration by a server they automatically detect. If that is correct, the broken server should be fixed, and I would guess that other universities aren't seeing this issue.
Looks like it was a Cisco problem, not an iPhone problem.
Yeah, I work for them and people keep blaming me for this, since they know I went to Duke, haha.

Maj. Eaton: We have top men working on it now.
Indiana: Who?
Maj. Eaton: Top... men.
