Wireless Guest Access at the American University: The Register reports that the American University campus in Washington DC is now a T-Mobile hotspot, but one that is providing free access to users. Since the university already has a campus-wide WLAN of its own for use by students and staff, this new one is intended to be for guests on the campus. The deal also includes some discount rates for students and staff when using off-campus T-Mobile hotspots and cellular service.
