Yepp got it working now and everything on the PS3 is running great!

does this network have a problem with Tor + Widecap? When I enable these programs, it doesn't work, if I try to set a proxy with an application, it doesnt let me connect to it any more |:

would also like to know if resnet has a problem with me changing my mac address? my friend said it does

[Loojay]

I'm having the issue of way too much data being used up in comparison to before the change. Somehow I've used 75% of my monthly quota and I haven't downloaded a single torrent or movie or whatever. The change to make Spotify and Netflix use up quota compared to before is ruining my usage. Wish it could be changed back.

Everything counts as data usage now. Any video watching on youtube and things. But you get 100GB a month now instead of 25GB.

So if I play PS3 does that count as usage? Do you have to login to this resnet server everytime you use wifi? Because used the wifi to play ps3/pc games online and watch youtube/movies I'd probably max the usage limit in a few days. Not really fair.

[PlopNofear]

Playing PS3 does count but it doesn't that much. My halls doesn't have wifi so you just plug the PS3 in using an ethernet cable. 100GB is a lot to be honest. Most home internet packages the limit is around 40GB for a whole family.

We have now added hourly usage statistics to the My ResNet area of our web pages at https://resnet.lancs.ac.uk - the stats are available for the last 7 days. Hopefully this will make it a bit easier for you guys to narrow-down when you are using your quota so that you have a better chance of correlating the usage with a particular application or Internet activity.

If you use more than your 100GB allowance your connection speed will just slow down to that similar to a standard ADSL2+ UK broadband connection, so you will still be able to enjoy a great web experience - our tests showed that once over quota we could still watch an HD iPlayer program, a 720p YouTube video and download a large file over HTTP all at the same time, with no delay. Connections to on-campus servers will still be at the full 100mbps line speed.

I can't believe the PS3 started working 1.5 weeks before my final exams! 1.) What a shame it hasn't worked for the last three years and 2.) What a shame for my exams! Fair play to ISS though, it's great fun now it works

That's fair! I thought you'd just cut the internet off after we exceed the limit lol

Anyone else having troubles accessing the resnet page that allows access to my validations and my quota etc?

I have tried on chrome, IE and mozilla, cleared the caches on all and still keep getting stuck on the gathering information about my connection page, it just keeps resetting to that page and can't even get to the co sign on login.

I am in Lonsdale residences and any help would be greatly appreciated as to whether this is at my end or the server end.

We had no service issues I'm aware of over the bank holiday weekend. Doesn't mean it's not a bug though. Try clearing your cookies, that can sometimes sort it out. If it doesn't work drop an email to the service desk with your name, mac address of machine, IP address and times you're having problems accessing the site and we can take a look.
