“Duke University is taking a softer stance on the cause of its wireless networking problems on Friday. Earlier in the week Duke administrators put the blame squarely on Apple’s iPhone, but a report due today from the university may exonerate the iPhone,” Jim Dalrymple reports for Macworld.
“‘We are presently looking into it and we have not been able to conclusively pinpoint where the problem is,’ said Julian Lombardi, assistant vice president of academic services technology support for Duke University,” Dalrymple reports. “‘We hope to have a resolution in the next few hours.'”
Dalrymple reports, “That is a much different position than Kevin Miller, assistant director, communications infrastructure, with Duke’s Office of Information Technology, took earlier this week. Miller laid the blame for Duke’s networking problems squarely on the iPhone.”
MacDailyNews Note: Network World on Monday quoted Kevin Miller as saying, “I don’t believe it’s a Cisco problem in any way, shape, or form.”
