Wireless/internet in UCD?

    How does it work? I don't think I'd bother bringing my own laptop (would there be an advantage to doing so).

    Got my student card today and I look awful. Absolutely dire, at least I don't look like I'm about to mug someone:p

    Starting next week and I wondered in today and I know where I'm going!

    I'm getting tempted to buy a UCD hoodie...

    There's computers all over the place in UCD - in the Science Hub near Elements Cafe and more upstairs. Then there's some in the Arts building. Then there are computer labs in Daedalus Building, where IT Services are based.

    To use wireless http://www.ucd.ie/itservices/itsupport/wirelessandlaptopsinucd/howtogetontheucdwirelessnetwork/

    Connection used to come and go for me in the library in UCD. There are signs for Wireless Hotspots and this is where desks will be limited esp. near exam time. But it is handy to bring in your laptop if you arrive early and want to work on assignments or look up topics you haven't a clue on.

    Are the computers pay to go or free to use? Are the ones in the computer lab for all students

    Yep, free. You just need to set up your account and that. I think you log onto UCDconnect using your student card number and set up your account. I can't remember how I did it. I think when we had the first IT class. But I'm sure if you go onto UCDconnect you'll work it out.

    The computers in the Daedalus building you can use once there isn't a class on.

    They also sell hoodies in the SU shop under the library. (should have bought one to parade around TCD)

    Having your own laptop is great if you're trying to kill time. Theres lots of laptop areas dotted around where you can plug them in and work away

    My picture for this year looks like it was taken from about 15 feet so i have a tiny head. I look awesome tho :p
