AIS ResNet

ResNet is AIS's extension of our Ethernet network to university students. ResNet offers one dedicated network connection to each student. Currently, each connection operates at a switched speed of 10Mbps while the uplink to the rest of the university network operates at a switched rate of 100Mbps.

What do I need to access ResNet?

• Ethernet Card

• You must have a standard (straight-through) category 5 patch cable. These can be purchased from our bookstore or any computer store. (Note: A typical telephone line WILL NOT work.) One end will plug into the network card in your computer, while the other will plug into the network jack on the wall. Since you may not know how far your computer will be from the network jack, and you'll probably move several times; we recommend you purchase a 20 ft. cable.

• If you have questions regarding the network services and applications that we are able to provide on ResNet, please read the Student Network Classification Policy.
  
  Please note, Internet-based video conferencing applications such as iChat and broadband VoIP telephony applications from providers such as Vonage and Skype ARE NOT supported on the student network.
