Yes the LAN facilities are available but using DC++ is prohibited in the whole campus. Let us discuss them in detail, which might give you a clear idea.

  • LAN facilities: They are available in computer centers and other labs. LAN ports are also available in hostel common rooms but are not available in personal hostel rooms or in libraries.
  • WiFi service: The entire academic block including the classrooms has high-speed wifi connectivity. You need a login ID and password to access the internet on campus which will be unique for each and every student and can be connected to a maximum of one device. Almost all the hostel rooms have amazing wifi signal strength except for a few. There are some instances where signal strength might be low but will be back in a few hours to a day. 

Few tips with the internet connection on campus:

  • Use VPN if required.
  • Consume as much of the internet as you want as there is no limit to usage.
  • If you have friends in the placement committee, getting their wifi password comes in handy as they have no limit for the number of devices to get connected to wifi. 
  • Install 'Connectify' on your laptop.

To sum up, the PEC campus has WiFi and LAN facilities but using DC++ is blocked. Signal strength is pretty decent.
