SECOND WIRELESS NETWORK on CAMPUS Due to the huge demand for Wireless Access on Campus it has been necessary to split the Wireless Network into two. Wireless Users in the library have probably already seen a new SSID of MACQUARIE LIBRARY appearing on their networks lists. Using this new network in the library should provide a faster service with a similar improvement on the existing network elsewhere on campus due to the reduced load. A word of caution if you have book marked the WIRELESS LOGIN page it needs to be different for the new network. The best method is to connect to the MACQUARIE LIBRARY network and type the URL of the off campus site you wish to visit and you will be automatically redirected to the correct page.
