Episode 08 – Student Wi-Fi

In this episode ITGL's Wayne Martin and Laura Powell are joined by Tim Ormrod, owner and director of Splash Access, to talk through the ongoing challenges that universities face when providing simple, secure, effective student Wi-Fi. Topics discussed include the complexities of coverage in halls of residence, effectively managing the increasing number of student devices running on university networks, and ensuring that the student onboarding experience is as smooth and simple as they’re used to at home. We also look at how modern network design can enable smart campus technologies that – alongside providing great student Wi-Fi – can also enable additional capabilities that can offset or supplement a tight networking budget.
