TitanConnect Upgrades

The TitanConnect INB and TitanConnect Self Service STUDENT and FACULTY systems are being upgraded today. There may be periods when a function or screen gives an error message while you are using it. That is because that function is being upgraded while you are using it. Please wait a few minutes and try yuour function/screen again. Once the update is complete, the error will resolve itself.

Since the TitanConnect system is available 24/7/365, there is never a good time to do upgrades, but we hope the timing is not too inconvenient for mostusers of the system.

This upgrade will NOT affect the TitanConnect Portal, E-mail or Blackboard.

Thank you for your patience.

Wireless Network Setback

Recent electrical problems have apparently burned out 3 network wireless access points in the Engineering and Ford Life Science buildings. Wireless (WiFi)coverage may be sparse in the Northeast corner of Engineering, and in Ford Life Science 3rd floor East, and in the lab in room 010. ITS is working to replace the burned out equipment as we can.

This morning our DHCP server failed and required a restart. The DHCP server issues out IP address to all computers. We anticipate this will be back in service within the next 30 minutes.

The easiest way to get back online will be a reboot of your computer. Once things are fully up, we will comment to this post with the update.
