{ Set up @live smu email account with macs

{ August 14th, 2010 | By kianhean | Under: Apple, SMU | 1 Comment »

Well as usual CIT or rather IITS is continuing to ignore the mac presence in smu. Their guide to set up entourage on a mac for the new email server was redirected to this site. I am not sure how long they can ignore and not support macs. SMU claims to be a school that is up to date with innovation and all IT savvy with their projector rooms and what have you not but they refuse to help and support mac users at all.

Due to that fact that they dont upgrade seniors with this account, i cant test any settings on it. I call out to the new mac users who manage to connect to entourage or mail with the new live email to let either me or Macness know so that we can publicize it.

We will prove that the mac community will support ourselves better than they can ever do.

Mail Settings

It seems that a simple substitute of the account name will work but i doubt it will be that simple.

Clues to the server settings can be found here

Can someone try the settings below and let me know!

I have created a script to auto configure your iphone to WLAN-Student and SMUVPN!

Requires iPhone/iTouch with iOS 3.0 and above. Tested on iPhone 4 running iOS 4.0.1 only. If it works perfectly for you please let me know!

This Script will auto configure your iPhone/iTouch to work with SMU WLAN-Student and VPN.

Instructions

Navigate here with iPhone/iTouch, enter username and install the script. The script will later ask for password for WLAN-Student and VPN, note that they are the same.

*UPDATE*

I have reports of it this config (particularly the wifi part, the VPN seems fine) not working. if it doesnt work for you please use

http://www.kianhean.com/smu/get-your-smu-email-on-your-iphone-4/901/

and for people using @live email (2010 intake and some seniors) use

http://www.kianhean.com/smu/get-your-smu-email-the-live-one-on-your-iphone/1062/

this auto config wont work for you.

My New iPhone 4 Arrived today! - June 29, 2010
Image by Patrick Hoesly via Flickr

After a few more days of using this gadget here are my thoughts

  1. Calls can be dropped by holding it the “wrong” way but it only happens in low signal strength areas (my room). Not all the time though.
  2. Battery life is not that great, it sure can last for an entire day out with heavy use (gaming, music, 3g) but 2 days is pushing it.
  3. Camera is so so, even with 5MP night shots are not very impressive. Otherwise its a good portable camera.
  4. Speed of the device is insane, even users who used 3Gs were impressed. Loading of 250 page pdfs are quick and navigate without lag.
  5. Singtel’s 3G network is fast, but did encountered places with no coverage and slow load times.
  6. It is impossible to use finish a 12 GB dataplan, unless u tether on a regular basis.
  7. 4square is a retarded mobile game.
  8. WLAN, VPN settings for the iPhone 4 work and were posted earlier.
  9. Bought my first app. Whatsapp. Was so simple to buy that it scared me. Just 1 click and 99 cents USD is gone.

{ Singapore has the one of the cheapest iPhone prices in the world

that is quite surprising…

*thought update*

This this mean we have one of the most open and competitive telco markets? Are the telcos in Singapore not colluding with each other at all and actually trying to kill each other? Could it be the strong SGD against the EURO?

{ The definite way to connect to WLAN-Student on an iPhone

{ August 3rd, 2010 | By kianhean | Under: Apple, SMU, iPhone | 9 Comments »

Sadly the link that helps you create the iphone network config file does work for my iPhone 4 anymore.

http://bookinbookout.com/smu/iphone/

When i click WLAN-Student on the wifi menu it simply doesnt connect.

Below is the sure-fire way to connect.

(Tested on iPhone 4 OS 4.0.1 that is)

It wont auto connect to WLAN but WLAN-Student will show up in your wifi menu.

Enter the following settings and you are done!
