We went from having an underperforming network to being a leader in our state for on-campus Wi-Fi. The impact this has on our students and faculty is nothing short of amazing. We couldn’t have done it without Alcatel-Lucent and Dagostino.
Challenges
- West Liberty University wanted to support learning and BYOD by providing students and faculty with state-of-the art Wi-Fi in the classroom and across campus.
- A new solution was required to replace aging and fragmented infrastructure and build a solid future-proof network.
