University‑wide network upgrade Monday 21 December
Published: 04/11/2026
On Monday 21 December, there will be an essential IT network upgrade taking place.
How this affects you
This will result in a complete digital outage affecting all NTU systems and services across the entire university and all campuses.
We are upgrading the NTU network to replace ageing equipment and to ensure it remains reliable, secure and fit for the future. This upgrade is an important piece of work to support the ongoing resilience, stability and long-term sustainability of NTU's network infrastructure.
During this time, no digital services will be available between 9 am and 12 pm, including:
- Wi-Fi and all wired internet connections.
- Logging into on-campus computers or IT facilities.
- Access to all university systems, platforms, and online services.
- Submitting and uploading assignments and other coursework.
- Access to Microsoft 365. We recommend downloading or saving essential files locally in advance and postponing work that relies on cloud services.
