Landis has WiFi throughout the building, although just like has been said around here about the many other dorms on campus with WiFi, you will want to bring an ethernet cable for when the WiFi goes down. And yes, the WiFi on campus goes down.

Its speed is heavily dependent on how many people are using it, how they are using it (just being on Facebook vs Netflix or something like Xbox Live). The general speed of the WiFi on campus when it is working correctly is in the neighborhood of 12 Mbps, although there are times where it will be much faster (upwards of 20-25 Mbps) and times when it will be much slower (2-3 Mbps). It just depends on how congested it is (and how far away from the router you are). And if you are worried about the speed, wired internet is significantly faster anyway (40+ Mbps regularly, sometimes up to 100 Mbps).

The height of the beds can be adjusted. You aren’t allowed (technically) to buy anything to raise the beds above what they can be adjusted to, either.
