Part 2: Responsibilities
Here are the things you need to do and be aware of when you connect to our system.
You are responsible for all traffic that is sent via your ResNet Connection.
It is
up to you
to ensure that your devices connected to ResNet do not break the “Don’ts”
and other rules.
Especially, ensure that your systems are clear of viruses and other malware
If you are having difficulties, or believe a device might be breaching our rules, then
please
ask us for help –
We will be happy to assist.
Allowing others to use your
Wi-Fi to circumvent ResNet access suspensions is forbidden
There’s a very good reason behind
all
access suspensions and we need that user to keep off
the network until we can resolve the issue behind the block.
Usually the suspended system contains malicious software that is
actively attacking
our
system or users so it is important that you do not give suspended users access through
your
wireless device to circumvent the block.
Doing this will usually cause your access to be suspended
automatically
when the same
activity is seen from
your
wireless access device.
The suspended user should work with us to resolve the actual issue instead.
Allowing others to access your Wireless is your responsibility – be careful!
Even if they are not suspended, if someone wants wireless access to ResNet, they should
normally purchase an access point so that we can balance the bandwidth used properly
between rooms.
If you have visitors to your room, you
can
give them access but you are then responsible for
what
they
do. We advise you to enter the Wi-Fi details in their device yourself to keep your
Wi-Fi passkey private.
You are responsible for keeping your Wireless passkey secret
Just as with your University IT username and password, you should keep your
Wi-Fi passkey
secret
and not share it widely with other users.
If you allow others to have access, we recommend that you enter the Wi-Fi details and
passkey directly yourself.
If you believe that your passkey is compromised
, please Contact
ResNet Support
using a
ResNet Support Form from your Court reception, so that we can visit and reset the access.
As always, contact
User Support
on
9898
if you need advice.)
