Can students access the S and U drives using wireless?

The CQURoam wireless network is separate to the student network so there is no direct access to the S or U drives. However, if you would like to access your personal files (U drive), you can connect using the online FTP service. Just type ftp://studhome.cqu.edu.au in your web browser and log in using your CQU username and password. 

Can students print using wireless?

Unfortunately there is no access to the campus printers from the wireless network. You will need to use the laboratory computers to print out any material.

Can I use CQURoam wireless in other CQU campuses?

Yes. You will be able to use your CQURoam account in any CQU campus that has wireless services available.
