Internet Connection
The Student Residences Network (Resnet) has been created to give access to the University Campus Local Area Network (LAN) to students living in the Student Residences.
All study-bedrooms have this data access provision.
Resnet is NOT a dial-up service using a modem. Resnet is a high speed Ethernet Network Service providing an 'always on' connection directly to your study-bedroom.
Students with a suitable computer - one with an Ethernet network adapter installed, can register with Resnet once they have moved into the Residence. Connection to Resnet will enable you to use the following services:
-
Browse the Internet
-
Send & receive e-mails (University e-mail accounts only)
-
Logon to Portal, the University Student Intranet
-
Access other educational resources, such as the Library Catalogue and myCourse, (the University's Managed Learning Environment)
-
Access Xbox Live
All this from the convenience of your study-bedroom!
Further developments of Resnet are also being planned and will be made available to students when suitable testing has been done. Although Resnet is primarily intended to help with academic work, modest personal use is permitted.
Specific information can be received by mailing questions to resnet@solent.ac.uk|
