Accommodation - NO WIFI?

I so was looking for my accommodation the other day and saw that there's no WIFI in some of the halls(0 human decency). I'm aware that there's this Eduroam thing but apparently it doesn't cover some halls of residence such as Manchester Gardens. How am I supposed to survive without Wifi?? Do you have you get your own broadband for these halls or what?
Also I heard that ethernet connection is available, how long does the ethernet cable have to be to reach all the way to the router??

Thank you very much.

My halls were Ethernet connection only. We didn’t have a router in the flat. I just had an Ethernet port/socket by the desk in my room. So the cables usually provided with a router were more than long enough.

I bought an extension cable because I wanted to use my laptop in bed more than at my desk.

Ohh I see what they mean by no internet now. So the Ethernet socket is the only way to access the internet.

Does that Ethernet socket give you direct access to the internet? Do you normally use your data on your phone then? Thanks!

I think it's a bit of a stretch to claim that having no Wifi in some of the halls as being '0 human decency'. Yes it is an inconvenience, but from what I remember when I was searching for accom, they do explicitly state this within their website (and even tell you what to do). So you do have a choice to choose these accom or not.

For subsequent years when you probably searching for private accom elsewhere, you can always find those that have Wifi included. But bear in mind too that if you look for houses (as opposed to apartments), some of them come without Wifi as well (and bills not included). So for those cases you would have to set them up yourself too.

Thanks for the info. I've misunderstood the phrase 'no wifi provided' and took it literally.
