Metropolia wireless network update on May 25-26, 2013

 

 

The Metropolia wireless network will be updated on May 25-26, 2013 on Hämeentie, Arabiankatu, Onnentie, Agricolankatu, Sofianlehdonkatu and Vanha viertotie campuses. There will be several long outages.

One third of wireless access points will be replaced with new ones. The new infrastructure will increase compatibility especially with new devices. Moreover, a new management software will be taken into use which will make troubleshooting easier.

After the update one third of the wireless access points will support only the older standard. All other access points will support the new standard the speed of which is five-fold compared to the old one.

Common areas will be preferred in the placement of new access points which may result in room-specific changes in coverage.
