I did the same got the link of that web page..

http://www.unl.edu/NETWORKING/pages/city.wireless.map.html
http://www.unl.edu/NETWORKING/pages/east.wireless.map.html

However not al the areas in green have good network connections..
I had a Toshiba e740 , but it did not work anywhere in Nebraska hall , 
except in the basement ..
One of the laptops we had worked however ..

I did talk to the IS people tat is the people who look after the wireless 
networking.They said they will look into the stuff, but if try and use it 
in The union , the cse building some parts of CBA , it does work pretty 
effectively

However the network we use does not use any encryption so be sure how you 
use it some one might sniff your data ..
More if u have problems getting it work the network name is TSUNAMI and 
normally works on channel 6 i think ..
