[tallkid34]

well i have an interview at new college and stupidly i forgot to ask where to go... not to keen on ringing back and being like "where do i go" lol

Go to their reception on anzac pde and ask.

That's it.

 

[TehAzner]

yeah i think our new ID cards from last year go for 3 years, and we jsut get a new student concession sticker each year.

Yeah that's right. So if you had a really bad hair day last year, you're going to be living with even more regret for the next 2 years lolol

 

[P.T.F.E]

Go to their reception on anzac pde and ask.

That's it.

[Dumsum]

Don't worry, residential college interviews are pretty easy going. As they say (whoever "they" are), they're the easiest interviews you'll ever have.

"Materials Science G10 (K-E8-G10)"

I think that means Kensington campus, building E8, room G10?

And E8 is Materials Science.

I know, bloody hell! I'm going through all that now.

(And what's with the FIVE different "authentication questions"? I don't even have a favourite colour!)

I especially like 'You cannot use any of your last 12 passwords'.

TWELVE.

 

[Omie Jay]

hahaha.

i basically used the same password as my unipass, but capitalised one letter, and added a 1 at the end.

i m so smrt

 

[biopia]

Yeah. When I set mine up, I used the same password.

I actually went into the uni for the first time last Friday and was surprised at how good the wireless is. I only had my iPhone, but I used uniwide to update my apps. A 50MB update took all of 10 seconds.

I am so glad I got into UNSW hehehe. Who knew that second preferences could be better than the first!

 

[dawdlex3]

The zPass thing is really crazy.
I'm going to get paranoid for changing passwords. Great.
I'm syncing my zPass with Unipass though.

 

[Sokolov]

im more annoyed with the zmail system.
incredibly difficult to fucking access when capped, bring back the original unimail.

Yeah. When I set mine up, I used the same password.

[henry08]

Already forgotten my zpass

 

[Omie Jay]

[dawdlex3]

Now the FASS computer labs are going to use this zPass thingy.
Why can't they merge the two passes?!

Woahhh shit lols

It's not such a large problem imo though, i mean, if you keep forgetting your password, wouldn't you just be able to keep accessing the identity manager and change it whenever you forget it? It's pretty simple imho.

 

[hollyy.]

is it bad that i have no idea what you guys are talking about with this zpass thing? sighhhh

 

[Omie Jay]

check your email, swan, you should've got an email about this.

otherwise:

IT at UNSW is upgrading the UniWide wireless service. This upgrade will provide significant improvements including better coverage and higher throughput over the old service.

What do I need to do?

This service will require a new method of access which utilises zPass rather than UniPass. After the upgrade, authentication via UniPass will be disabled. Authentication is only available via zPass.

To set your zPass (if you have not done it yet), you can log into the Identity Manager website (https://idm.unsw.edu.au/) with your UniPass and set it up. Why don't you do that right now?
Also instruction guides to reconfigure your device to support the use of zPass are available at IT at UNSW - UniWide - UNSW Wireless Network

When is this happening?

The new service is going to be implemented on Friday the 19th of February between 6am and 10am. During this period UniWide will be unavailable.

Why is this happening?

The new UniWide service provides higher levels of security, has no access or usage charges and is accessible to a wider range of mobile devices.

Who do I need to contact?

For more information or if you cannot access UniWide, please contact the IT Service Centre on 93851333 or ITServiceCentre@unsw.edu.au

You're welcome ^____________^
