The University is connected to the Internet. All the facilities and resources available over the Internet are accessible by everyone on the campus network, as well as from one's home.
Read on to find out how to connect to the University network.
Our high-speed fixed line network is available throughout campus in the halls of residence, graduate housing, laboratories and also common areas or locations like the libraries, tutorial rooms, lecture theatres. With over 25,000 network points campus-wide, you'll find no shortage of fixed line access to connect your computer to the Internet and our e-services!
To supplement the fixed line campus network, a campus-wide wireless network called NTUwireless was also implemented in 2000. This high-speed wireless network enables campus users equipped with mobile devices such as notebooks and PDAs to access all e-services from practically anywhere on the campus such as lecture theatres, academic complexes, canteens, reading rooms and libraries without the need of network cables.
For off-campus access from your homes or remote sites, we have about 300 dial-up lines for remote dial-in using telephone lines. Students or staff with Internet Service Providers (ISPs) accounts can also connect to the University's resources using Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP).
With NTUmobile you can connect to the University's selected e-services from virtually anywhere. Make the most of your time, whether you're waiting for a train, an appointment, or travelling in a bus. Receive text messages, read your e-mail and get the latest news from that pocket-handy mobile phone of yours.
