UC’s Digital Services continues to encounter connection and performance issues with the Wi-Fi network that services both the Ilam and Dovedale UC campuses. You may have been experiencing issues with connecting, or staying connected to, the UCWireless and Eduroam networks.
Digital Services is working quickly to resolve this issue to ensure the Wi-Fi networks can support you and your studies while on campus. They currently don’t have a timeline for when these issues will be resolved.
Digital Services sincerely apologise for any disruption this has caused to the start of your semester here at UC. We will continue to update you here, on the Tūpono blog.

Register online before you get here
Take the time to register online before you visit your first time. This will save you time once you get here, and it will take just a few moments for our friendly team to help get your student ID card connected and activate, so you can have full access to all the cool stuff we have.
Get the UC Rec&Sport Technogym app
After you register, you’ll be sent a few emails from us. It’s important that you follow all the instructions in them to get the full experience. One will help you set up your app, giving you even more resources to help you to your goals.
Wear shoes, shirts and proper bottoms
For the health, safety and comfort of yourself and others, it’s essential you wear shoes that covered toe and heel (no crocs, jandals, sandals or birks); shirts are worn, and your shorts, tights or trackies are comfortable and enable you to move freely.
Bring a gym towel & use the gym wipes
Use a small hand towel at the gym to wipe yourself down and stop your excess sweat flinging onto others or being left behind on equipment. You can use it to lay on your bench before you lay down, creating a barrier between you and the surface.Gym wipes are located all around the facility, use them to wipe down when you finish (and if you don’t trust the person before you, you can use them before you start as well). They are biodegradable and you help us make the gym more hygienic when we all use them!
