broken/slow network in "internet area" between east and tower lifts

[mellon@…]

I'm getting classic bufferbloat symptoms on the ietf ssid, and no router advertisements on ietf-nat64.   Is there hope?

To confirm, you were connected to the IETF SSID in the lobby area between towers, correct?

The lobby area between the east elevators and the tower elevators.

We had an IETF WAP in the lobby area by the piano in the atrium bar (Edg I think is the name of the bar there). It's been removed so that users can no longer connect to the IETF meeting SSID's in the public lobby areas. Initially, the ietf-hotel SSID was not configured on the hotel WAP's. Now that ietf-hotel is broadcasting, the utility of an IETF meeting WAP in these public areas is marginal. Further, attendee systems that prefer the IETF meeting SSID's would run the risk of making a less-than-ideal association to this device. This is what I imagine was happening to you. If you were in the lobby area between the tower elevator banks, then you were a good distance from the WAP we had deployed, with a full bank of elevators complicating things further.

So the end result now is that you shouldn't see the IETF meeting SSID's from that area. That being said, you should be able to connect to the many hotel WAP's broadcasting the ietf-hotel SSID.

When you can, would confirm that you can connect to the ietf-hotel SSID in this area and that it's working well for you?

Thank you.

I'll try, but I'm not sure when—today is my busiest day... :}

Thank you for your feedback. As we are at the end of the meeting, I am closing this ticket. See you in Toronto!
