Those involved in the Network Refresh project have had a very busy, active summer!
UoD IT has been working on the delivery of your new, ultrafast WiFi and more reliable wired network connection - did you know it's one of the largest network installations in the world?
Here's a quick summary of the latest milestones met:
• Moved city campus student accommodation areas onto the new network
• Launched a new service that allows residents to add streaming and gaming devices to the new network
• Successfully connected the new network to the outside world
• Switched on your new, super-fast WiFi network in the Main Library, City Campus.
Here's a taste of the comments received so far...
“I didn’t think the old WiFi was that bad till I tried the new one in the Library and it makes the old stuff look rubbish.”
“Wow, I think I'll cancel my broadband at home and move into the library - it is so much faster and free.”
