Network connection & support
Concordia provides high speed wired network connection, installation, and support to users on both the Sir George Williams and Loyola campuses.
Who can use it?
Students living in a Concordia residence, faculty, and staff.
How much does it cost?
New connections, activations, and support are generally free of charge.
In certain cases there is a fee for the purchase of new equipment or installation of cabling. A quote can be supplied by IITS for these cases by contacting the Service Desk.
How to get it
- Requests for wired network connection should ideally be submitted by a department administrator to the Service Desk. The request should include the exact service needed, the jack number (if activation is required), and the user's netname. If you do not have a designated department administrator, you may still place a request for approval by the network technicians.
