The WebHelpdesk support ticket system (www.wpunj.edu/help) will be unavailable on Thursday May 4th from 7 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. while required system updates are performed. During this period, the Helpdesk can be contacted at 973.720.4357.

Thank you for your patience while we complete these upgrades.

We've received reports of WP community members who are unable to access WP's Blackboard system from off-campus, with most reports coming from individuals who have Comcast/Xfinity as their ISP.

WPUNJ's Blackboard platform is cloud-based and hosted directly by Blackboard. After researching, we've identified that Blackboard has a status update indicating that they encountered a network issue earlier this morning and that a resolution for this issue should be flowing out to all internet service providers now.

At this time, the expectation is that this resolution should reach the Comcast/Xfinity ISP in the near future. For direct assistance with this issue, impacted individuals may need to contact their ISP support and indicate that they are unable to reach the following website: 'bb.wpunj.edu'

For additional information from Blackboard, see https://status.blackboard.com.

Thank you.

Update: As of 3:30pm Microsoft has reverted a recent upgrade and most application issues seem to have been resolved.
