Internet problems
Does anyone have internet wifi connection problems on campus. Whenever I connect to macconnect or macsecure, I always lose the connection after a certain time. This does not happen to my home internet though, but I just want to make sure that it is not my computer malfunctioning. So anyone have this problem too?

mac connect and macsecure are quite pathetic this year. I would be surprised if it were your computer.

Yeah, it's the school's network. Compared to my past two years, even with the Wi-Fi enhancements, the Wi-Fi this school year is the worst.

It depends on the building for me. MDCL is usually awful, JHE is usually pretty decent.

Wasn't there a thread exposing how MSU people get paid big buck for their positions?

I mean Jeez, I wouldn't give a damn about my responsibilities either if all it took to get my job is some bull crap for the student masses. Oh, and those masses would pay for your rent too, what a deal!

Where did our $100,000 in WiFi upgrades go? It feels like no difference for most areas on campus. https://www.msumcmaster.ca/posts/79

It prob went to those white hubs that are scattered around the buildings. Except they don't seem to work and still lots of no coverage areas (or lots of dcs)
