Ed-Tech members,
If you teach today at 5:00 PM and were expecting to use the WirelessCanes network to get to the Internet or Blackboard, please use some alternative activities in class, or have an alternate way to access your materials.
The wireless network is being upgraded to allow guest access, I have been told. The system will be unavailable starting at 5:00 PM. The expected down-time is sporadic for 30 minutes. It could take as long as one hour, with sporadic outages throughout, based on what I was told.
Finally, I don't know if this will affect everyone, or only limited areas. But it is best to have a Plan-B ready whenever you use technology, and especially today at 5:00 PM.
