Update: UCWireless and Eduroam Connection Issues

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.
