Our University-wide network is now fully wireless and connects all campus buildings and operations. Eduroam should be your starting point whenever connecting devices to the network.
To connect your device to the wireless network please use the instructions outlined in the Knowledge Base article Connect to Eduroam
If your device doesn't have the option to enter your netID, you cannot connect it to eduroam. Instead, register your device on Servicenet and try to connect that way.
