Firstly, the type of wireless network is not mentioned clearly. Still I have some observations as per experience.

Case:1

The bandwidth per user in a 80 computers in a wireless network depends on the connection speed and no. of the wireless accesspoints and no. of users connected to each access point if the network is a combination of cable and partial wireless. Say, 5 users are actively connected to a single wireless accesspoint which supports a connection speed of 10Mbps, then each user has 10/5 Mbps (2Mbps) connection speed or bandwidth logically.

The point here is to how many accesspoints these 80 computers are connected? So that we can calculate the actual bandwidth per user.

Case:2

One more case, if the wireless network is a bridge type, then the whole scenario changes. The bandwidth of each user in 80 computers network will be a dedicated speed same as the backplane speed of the network.
