Wireless internet network services
The University's wireless network lets you work from just about anywhere inside the Sir Owen G Glenn Building.
About the network
The University provides a wireless computer network based on the 802.11 standard, which allows any suitably equipped device (eg, a laptop or phone with a wireless network adapter) to:
- Connect to the University network
- Access Terminal Services (the Business School’s remote access service)
- Print files and documents
- Access services and resources such as internet access, CECIL, and Library databases
All students on University wired computers or their own wireless-connected devices have no restrictions on how much internet data they consume.
