oh, i gotchya...you were talking about your school and i was talking about my school and it was so confusing for a time but now i see.
my room isn't a 4 person "bedroom" it's a 4 person "living area" with 2 bedrooms, one bathroom, and one living room shared by 4 people. unfortunately, the internet port is in the living room so if you want to hook up computers in the bedrooms, you're looking at having to buy some very long lengths of ethernet cable, and you'd still need a hub. so we have our computers all set up in the living room, which means that we buy shorter lengths of cable and still need a hub. but if we had wifi in our dorm, we could put our computers wherever we wanted in the entire "suite" and still have easy internet access without the need of an oft unreliable, cheap, wireless hub.

All the kids black and white, together we are dynamite.
