These simple checks should be performed prior to raising a ticket.


  1. Check the cables: If you are using a wired network connection, HDMI leads (for projector), ensure that the cables areproperly plugged in at both ends and is not damaged. If you are using a hub, check that your laptop is plugged-in to the hub via the hubs USB-C cable. Is there another network socket that you could try?

  2. Check the power: trace the power cable, ensure it is connected, seated properly on the adaptor, ensure the power switch is turned on.

  3. Check Wi-Fi settings: Try connecting to the school Wi-Fi network "Domain_Computers" or "MHSF_Key"

  4. Check other devices: Check if other devices in the area are able to connect to the internet. If they can, then the problem is likely to be with your computer.

  5. Restart your computer: particularly if there are pending updates or the computer was "sleeping".


If none of these steps solve the problem, you may need to seek assistance from IT Support by logging a ticket.
