ResNet

The Residential Network (ResNet) is managed by the Office of Computing and Communications Services (OCCS). ResNet's goal is to provide high quality data, voice,and video services to students living in the university residence halls, and the university village apartments. This program is supported by professional and student staff who provide technological services and support for high speed internet access, local phone service,cable television, and personally owned computers.

We believe that information technologies will continue to grow and be an integral part of academic and residential life at Old Dominion University. From this premise, we are developing ways to expand students awareness and skills by:

  • Providing students living on campus with a secure network environment to allow for access to all available online resources

"Students are responsible for keeping their computer virus free, and secure from compromise".

  • Offering consultation and support in a residential environment where students are helping other students to maintain and protect their computers.
  • Educating students about popular programs that consume bandwidth and to secure their computer while they are connected to the university network.

ResNet staff is available to guide, resolve problems, remove viruses, and recommend resources for computer hardware repair issues. They can provide consultation of computer purchases, and perform software upgrades and installations.
