Finding Wifi on Campus?

fmd_good Hong Kong Shue Yan University

So I'm heading to this uni in @Hong Kong next semester, super hyped. Heard the campus is pretty spread out though. Anyone know if the wifi's reliable everywhere, or are there dead zones I should be p… more

Depends on the uni, really. HKU? CUHK? CityU? They all have different infrastructures. Generally, the main buildings and libraries are pretty well covered, but you might find some weaker signals in more outlying areas or older buildings. I wouldn't say it's a nightmare like your last uni sounds like it was, but definitely don't rely on it being perfect everywhere. A portable hotspot might be a good backup plan, especially if you're doing heavy uploading or streaming. Or, you know, just plan your study sessions around areas with solid wifi.

Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.

Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
