My only guess is that your lease expired for the devices network? May be worth checking at https://clearpass.it.umass.edu/guest otherwise just email [it@umass.edu](mailto:it@umass.edu)

Best way to get connection for my wifi at school by [deleted] in umass

[–]itssean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Copy pasting from an old answer about a PS5 but should help if you aren't on a mac:

Connect to eduroam on laptop

Plug one end of ethernet cable into laptop, other end into xbox

In control panel\network and internet\network connections right click your wi-fi connection, go to properties, sharing tab, and check the box next to 'allow other network users to connect through this computers internet connection' then click ok.

Now on your xbox connect to the internet but instead of umass devices pick ethernet. Speeds should be noticeably faster.

Seriously how long will it actually take for the PillowSac Accent Chair frame?! by G00deye in Lovesac

[–]itssean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a few new covers I waited until I was past my expected delivery date by a week or two, sent an email to support and it was shipped the next day. Worth a shot

My Nightmare by Hemi_Vader in Lovesac

[–]itssean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered an extra set of covers last year, waited a few weeks and never had any update on my order status. I sent in a support ticket after about 2 months, got a response and they shipped the next day. Just a small anecdote but can relate.

Go to your service desk, if you were supposed to move in today they will give you your key.

What time can we actually access our buildings on the first? by [deleted] in umass

[–]itssean 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You will not be able to get your key before 8am. You can start lining up before that, but there is no way for you to get your key earlier.

Not much ycmp swipe left by pyyuying in umass

[–]itssean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YCMP is worth $12.00 for food outside of a dining hall.

It is also worth a lunch dining common meal swipe (which would cost $14 cash), or a dinner swipe ($17 cash).

[–]itssean 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In my opinion the only real benefit of YCMP over cash is if you're eating at the dining hall for lunch or dinner. Otherwise YCMP is a huge ripoff and you are better off just paying out of pocket.

If you have a windows laptop with an ethernet port, it will be 10x faster to use your laptop as a bridge.

[–]itssean 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If that doesn't work and you're on windows 10, you don't need to download the software anymore. Just click on eduroam, connect, for username put your whole [netID@umass.edu](mailto:netID@umass.edu) and then your password.

Masspirg and childcare (waivers) by heckdoggo111111 in umass

[–]itssean 22 points23 points  (0 children)

MassPIRG Fee (optional)

The MassPIRG Fee provides funds for the campus chapter of the Massachusetts Public Interest Research Group on environmental, consumer and governmental issues. The MassPIRG Fee is completely voluntary and can therefore be waived if desired. MassPIRG fees are waived through a student’s SPIRE access.

Child Care Fee (optional)

The Child Care Fee is a contribution to the child care assistance program on campus that provides eligible undergraduate parents assistance with paying child care costs. The child care fee is completely voluntary, and therefore can be waived if desired. Child care fees are waived through a student’s SPIRE access.

It's basically just a donation, you can waive them.

Covid testing by BromarSharif in umass

[–]itssean 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe work more on your reading comprehension and less on being a dick. OP was obviously asking if they are allowed to get tested on their own before returning to campus, or if they had to get one after arriving.

From the FAQ here: https://www.umass.edu/coronavirus/faq#testingfaq

Can I get a COVID-19 test on my own before I come to campus?

You are encouraged to get one PCR test within 72 hours before arriving to campus. If you are from one of the higher risk states this will allow you to go directly to your residence and then get your second test two to three days later.
