Troubleshooting

Most problems with connecting phones to the wireless network are related to passwords:

• If you have followed the instructions above and your phone does not connect, you may need to synchronise your passwords. Use the link below to log into the account management page and click the option to synchronise your passwords.
• Some people are still trying to use a second password (vpn, rats password) to connect to wireless. This will not work, use your normal University password.

Synchronise your Passwords

If you still have trouble connecting, talk to any member of staff in the Information Commons or visit the Computing Centre. We will be happy to help.
