Wills Hall Z block (update Fri 10th Oct)
Hillside/Woodside speed improved (previous) :: Student Laptop clinic launches (next)
According to our monitoring system, the ResNet service to 23 rooms at Wills Hall Z Block hasn't been working since 4.20pm today (Monday).
When this happens it is normally due to a temporary power failure in the affected area - but it has been some time now and there still appears to be a problem, so it probably isn't just power. Sorry for the interruption to service. We'll investigate as soon as possible on Tuesday when staff are back in.
Updated 11.35pm Tuesday 7th Oct: ResNet in Wills Hall Z Block is now back up and running
Updated 6.15pm Friday 10th Oct: This failed again overnight on Thursday 9th Oct. The cause on both occasions this week is the power supply tripping out. This power supply is on a shared circuit with some of the rooms on the top floor of Z Block - students in these rooms lost power to their room too. ResNet access was restored when the power was restored.
The usual cause for a circuit to trip out is that it is overloaded, but we don't know precisely why it is happening in this case.
