Frequent problems found at the UC wireless networks

  • Problem connecting to UNICAN-i or ALUMNOS-i networks with the Windows  wireless client. Since the implementation of the Eduroam network this problem  has been detected. If you have this problem follow these steps.

 

  • Issues have been identified with the wireless cards (WiFi) type Intel 3945ABG. If you have this model of wireless card is recommended to install the latest version of Intel PROWireless customer located at:

V11.1.0.0_XP32.EXE

 

If you use Windows Vista operating system, and you have this kind of wireless card see how to configure the wireless network in Windows Vista.

 

  • Coverage limitations: The wireless network of university (WiFi Network) covers virtually all of the buildings on campus and every day has more access points ( "antennas") to ensure coverage.
    However, as we have warned since July 2005, there are still many irregular WiFi access points, installed at offices and laboratories of the university without the authorization of the IT Service.

    Due to the nature of the wireless networks, the existence of these additional networks side by side with the network installed by the university as a common service means interference problems and avoids the suitable functioning of UNICAN-I, affecting other users.

 

  • In addition,  poorly configured access points constitute a serious security problem by allowing uncontrolled access to the University network.

    Please do not install WiFi access points without authorisation, is against the security policies and is damaging to other users and the investment done by the UC.
