Re-arrangement
of Existing Modem Pool
By

Effective
from 1 July 2003, the size of the existing modem pool will
be reduced and re-arranged as follows:
-
Student-only
Pool, 2-hour limit (440 lines), hunt group number: 24704400.
-
Student
and Staff Pool, 2-hour limit (80 lines), hunt group number:
24704402.
-
Student-only
Express Pool, 30 minutes limit (100 lines), hunt group number:
24704401.
All modem
pools are allowed to access the Internet.
"Student-only
Pool" and "Student and Staff Pool" are accessible
to all students using a single hunt group number while "Student-only
Express Pool" is accessible by a separate hunt group
number. The hunt group number of "Student and Staff Pool"
is primarily for staff use as students can indirectly access
this pool through the hunt group number of "Student-only
Pool".
Unless the budget situation can be improved, it is anticipated
that the size of modem pool will be further reduced year after
year until the budget no longer allows. We urge CityU staff,
if possible, to switch to broadband so that more lines can
be made available for student use.
