by ·Comments Off on [RESOLVED] UNPLANNED OUTAGE: Eduroam WiFi Network Disruption – Update and Workarounds

Update 8/30/2024 1:00 pm

The ITS team, working closely with our vendor partners, successfully resolved the Eduroam issues late last night.

To ensure a smooth transition, please switch your devices to the Eduroam WiFi network as soon as possible. To enroll in Eduroam for the first time, follow these directions. Denison-Guest will remain accessible but will require login every 24 hours starting next week.

Please contact the Service Desk with questions (servicedesk@denison.edu or 740-587-6395).

Update 8/29/2024 12:18 am

ITS is working tirelessly with our vendors to resolve the ongoing eduroam connectivity issues, but it’s proving to be more complex than anticipated.

To ensure reliable internet access on the first day of classes, we ask that you:

  • Use the Denison Guest network. We’ve increased capacity to support increased use.
  • Use the VPN for accessing on-campus resources like Banner or your U: drive.
  • Use Denison_Play for streaming and gaming on devices like Apple TVs and Xbox.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding. Our top priority is to restore full Eduroam functionality as soon as possible.

Update: 08/28/2024 2:30 pm
ITS is continuing to troubleshoot the issue and is working diligently to resolve it as quickly as possible. We will update this post as soon as we have an update. For any questions, please contact the Service Desk at 740-587-6395 or email servicedesk@denison.edu.

We experienced a campus-wide outage affecting Google websites, which ITS is currently investigating. The outage occurred between 3:11 PM and 3:12 PM. Based on our monitoring, it appears that only Google websites lost connectivity, while other websites continued to function normally. You may have noticed this issue if you were using any Google web services, particularly Google Meet.
