 I'm flouncing real life today over the unfair working conditions
	I'm flouncing real life today over the unfair working conditionsi.e. they expect me to do my job and its the first week of term. Freshers week AKA bunch of entitled pricks week.
Highlights so far - 1. Daddy phones to complain his precious one hasn't got wireless in her room. We told him that the rooms in the cheaper halls don't have wireless but an ethernet cable is provided. He threatens to pay someone to install wireless in her room and send us the bill because his precious one shouldn't have to use a cable. 2. Student requests his money back on his freshers wristband because he didn't realise that it only got you free entry to all the event before 10pm and I quote "Going out before 10pm is not something I am preconditioned too"
I fucking hate students

 Easy answer to 1
	Easy answer to 1Buy wireless router herself, connect to laptop wired once only, log into admin menu, disable DHCP, log out, disconnect laptop, plug router into Ethernet cable, use wireless. Simples.
May have left step 1 "don't be a cunt" out.

 Nope
	NopeWe don't allow it. Someone tried that one last year. They paid for their internet, attached a router and then sold it cut price to the other people in his block. We noticed there was an unauthorised bit of kit attached within hours and disconnected it. These days we have device registration before they can use any kit on the network.

 Indeed
	Indeedwhich is why you turn DHCP off before connecting it to the network, or it will proper bugger things up.
You might get away with a proper wireless access point (extender) rather than a router, though, bit more expensive but more designed for the job.
