TRS Wireless Outage – Sunday, May 29, 2011

On Sunday, May 29, the wireless network was unavailable from 8:00 am until about 10:45 pm, due to a scheduled upgrade to the code on the TRS wireless controller. The upgrade did not work, nor did the attempt to revert back to the previous version. After extensive trouble-shooting and contact with Aruba support, it was decided that a work-around was required to get the controller and the wireless operational on the original code version.

We apologize for the interruption.
