With the collaboration among the JUCC institutions (CityU, HKU, CUHK, PolyU, HKUST, HKBU, LU and HKIEd), the Computing Services Centre (CSC) is pleased to announce that CityU members (staff members or students alike) from now on can enjoy wifi connections to the Internet while they are visiting any of the above eight JUCC institutions without any prior approval. All you need is an IEEE802.11b/g/n compliant wireless device, no matter whether it is a WiFi phone, PDA or notebook computer. While you are at one of the JUCC member institutions, use your WiFi device to search the WiFi network there for the SSID "Universities WiFi" (which is common to all JUCC institutions and denotes the name of the collaborated WiFi service). After connecting to the said SSID, use your CityU's Network Connection password to login the wireless network there (the same password for logging in the CityU's Wireless LAN network) and then gain WiFi access to the Internet. You can check the locations at each institution where WiFi access is available by visiting http://wifi.jucc.edu.hk/jucc-wifi/. The "Universities WiFi" utilizes the most secure connection
and data encryption (WPA and WPA2) to protect your data privacy.
Please refer to http://www.cityu.edu.hk/csc/ Please be reminded that you can also enjoy the same WiFi connection
to the Internet while visiting any of the EduRoam member institutions
and any local hotspots run by PCCW and Y5Zones. For details, please
refer to the CityU WLAN home page at http://www.cityu.edu.hk/csc/ How to Go Green: Double-sided Printing Double-sided (or 2-sided or duplex) printing should be used whenever possible. Besides the benefits of saving trees, reducing carbon in the atmosphere, and holding a handier set of hardcopies, surprisingly it can save up your print quota. With immediate effect, whenever you use duplex printing to print on a piece of paper through the Quota Controlled Fast Print Queue, your print quota will be deducted by 1.5 instead of 2. This is really a big saver! To use double-sided printing, when you print:
Using double-sided printing is a small change but can have a big impact. As going green is our common goal, act NOW to show your support! |

A
Big Leap in Email Quotas After reviewing users' needs, current provision, storage resource, backup time, and manpower, the email quotas for staff and students were increased to 200MB and 50MB respectively from 23 September 2004. All users are reminded to make good use of the increased quota by properly managing the Email messages, backing up important messages and deleting unwanted ones. For more details, please visit the Email home page http://email.cityu.edu.hk/. Generous
Print Quota for Students The print
quota provided for our students is the most generous among
all local universities, and we hope that they will make good
use of the valuable resource for their studies. Dial-up Service Reduced Since the population of broadband users in the CityU has been fast growing, it was decided that the modem pool size of the dial-up service was reduced from 620 to 300 lines in order to wisely use the limited resources. |
