Did you know that there are 2,000 wireless access points across campus in buildings and green spaces and the number has doubled over the last three years? To meet the growing demand and for scalability, Networking and Telecommunications Services (NTS) continues to upgrade the wireless network. To accommodate the demand that experts in the industry predict, universities and high-density organizations will need four times the current number of access points.
According to Danny Fronce, associate director of Networking and Telecommunications Services, more wireless devices are hitting the K-State network than ever before. At 9:05 a.m. on a typical Friday morning, 9,234 devices were connected to the K-State wireless network, said Fronce. Fast forward to noon on any given day, when peak usage occurs with 14,000 devices connecting to our network.

Information Technology Services is making progress with the Office 365 migration. To date 14,445 accounts have been migrated to Office 365. With the successful start to the migration and the beginning of the semester behind us, we will be continuing with student migrations this week. This will include all remaining students with the exception of student employees, GRAs, GTAs and GAs who were employed or had signed contracts before August 7. In other words, if the student was on campus and didn’t have a signed contract on August 7, they will migrate. It is anticipated that the student migration will continue through September and into early October.
Preparation, planning and testing continues for the faculty and staff migration which is scheduled to begin this fall. We will be providing at least a two week notice before departments are migrated. Please keep an eye on the Office 365 project page located at www.ksu.edu/its/office365 for all of the latest information.
