Covid-19 update (33) - Secure gateway enables teaching and learning
- Wits University
Students and staff members who have not already done so, must complete the student survey or staff survey before 8pm on Thursday, 11 June 2020.
Wits University has partnered with Vodacom to implement a secure gateway, which enables staff and students to access teaching and learning resources.
This solution will provide staff and students with 10GB daytime and 20GB night-owl data bundles per month for use on selected URLs that can accessed through the Wits network for teaching and learning purposes. This is available on Vodacom SIM cards only.
A comprehensive set of Frequently Asked Questions can be downloaded, which explains how you can access the data: www.wits.ac.za/mywits/data-access/. You will have to download the CISCO VPN app and have a R5 Vodacom sim card to access the solution (the R5 will be refunded through airtime).
Students and staff members who have not already done so, must complete the student survey or staff survey before 8pm on Thursday, 11 June 2020 in order to inform the University of their Vodacom number or to advise if they do not want to receive the data.
Please direct all queries to DataHelp@wits.ac.za – the ICT team will respond within 24 hours.
Thank you.
