I'd like to know what other schools are doing to proactively troubleshoot wireless issues on your campus.
Our network team does a great job of troubleshooting end user wireless connectivity issues when a customer calls the Service Desk to report an issue, but end users don't like to call our Service Desk to report issues. Because of this, end users assume our network sucks or they try their own workarounds (eg. using cellular data, etc.). What level of success do you have with customers contacting your Service Desk about connectivity issues? Do you do anything to proactively find out if customers are having connectivity issues? It seems like a lot of the issues are on the client side (eg. updating Surface Pro drivers, applying a Mac fix, etc.). What approaches are you using to communicate about device specific issues? I'd appreciate any feedback you have on how you are approaching this issue on your campus to improve end user experience with your wireless network.
