Not sure about the administrative concerns, but whatever you do, make sure you're not handing out DHCP addresses to the rest of the campus ;)
BTW, the routers coming out now have the NAS functionality built in through USB, just plug your own USB hard drive in and go.

My son is at U of Ottawa and would like to put a router in his office to run his laptop and perhaps a NAS box. I can't see that this would be any different from what we do at home, so it should work.
Perhaps there are administrative concerns that Gilbert would be familiar with. Does this happen at UofM? I suspect a wi-fi port might be unwelcome. --
