University laptops not connecting to the internet – update 17:00 19 April

Since yesterday morning (18 April 2023), several hundred colleagues have been experiencing issues connecting via Wi-Fi on their work laptops. The issue was caused by a software update overnight and primarily affected colleagues who are using Windows 10 laptops which were built over two years ago.
