I have server access!!! I guess I should close up the petition, the battle is won. It was a good fight.
I'm at NAIA Centennial Terminal (NAIA-2) waiting for my flight to board. I'm headed over to Cebu to visit my family. I haven't been to NAIA-3 yet but it safe to say that for now, this is my favorite terminal in Manila (well, NAIA-1 isn't an option and Manila Domestic Terminal is not an terminal). From what I can remember, only airborne access used to operate this business but I was quite surprised that AirPort picked up the MIAAT2FreeWIFIsw network. I'm quite happy waiting for my flight to board. Good job!

Updates to the Petition
I have printer access! The administration is slowly hearing the cries of the oppressed and the printer-less. There are still connection interruptions but it looks like its on the up and up.
But sadly, I am the only one in our office network. I can't SEE anyone. This could be due to the fact that I am running on Windows Vista and my colleagues are well, aren't. Vista is magical because it disconnects you from the rest of the world. What I mean is that Vista doesn't recognize other lesser beings in the network and XP and lower OSs don't recognize the top dog of the Windows OSs. Anyway, it is an odd odd thing but I will keep on trying to experiment and hopefully not lose my job (right away).

Wifey
Wife-y. Is how I'm going to start calling Wi-Fi. I don't think it'll catch on though.
And so... we've moved into another office.
And we're all supposed to be free and happy with wireless Internet. And I am. Of course I am. It's great and all. But our server files are missing... and I'm not connected to any printer and its all so blah. I miss my LAN cable.
In this regard, we have decided to form a petition. The "Bring Back the LAN Cable Petition to the Workplace Petition (yes I want to say petition twice because it makes it more serious). There is no stealing here in the 5th floor tower (codename: office). We are on a secure network, which is great. But there are too many inconveniences, too many loose ends.
So I haven't really made up my mind yet if I'm happy about this situation. Anyway, here's to hoping that things shape up soon.
