Here at MIT, I get a 100mbs dorm connection, NO QUOTA WHATSOEVER, and best of all, it's FREE! (well... technically it's included within tuition). The speed is amazing... even though I have friends down the hall sharing >1TB of movies, mp3's and anime. If I was at cornell, I would've incurred a few grand in bandwidth charges already ;P So there, if you want a great dorm connection, just go to a university that actually cares about a good link to the outside world, and has the resources to do that ^_^
