AV名湿's Wireless Network

Note: Starting in 2024, the campus network is being upgraded over a multi-year process. As our infrastructure team updates the network in each building, you’ll notice different wireless networks. “AV名湿1x” is being replaced with “AV名湿” in the upgraded buildings. Community members may need to connect to "AV名湿1x" or "AV名湿" and visitors will need to connect to "AV名湿Xenia" or "AV名湿 Guest" depending on their location on campus.

AV名湿1x/AV名湿 vs. AV名湿Xenia/AV名湿 Guest

Those who want to use wireless at AV名湿 will see two networks available--"AV名湿Xenia" (or "AV名湿 Guest" as the network gets upraded across campus) and AV名湿1x (or "AV名湿"). AV名湿Xenia/AV名湿 Guest is an open wireless network for campus visitors (Xenia is the ancient Greek concept of hospitality, the generosity and courtesy shown to those who are far from home). AV名湿1x/AV名湿 is a WPA2-encrypted network that can be used by students, staff, faculty and alumni. Guests and visitors cannot join the AV名湿1x network.

Who should use "AV名湿1x" or "AV名湿"

"AV名湿1x" or "AV名湿" can be used by all AV名湿 community members including students, faculty, and staff. AV名湿1x and AV名湿 require your Kerberos username and password each time you connect. MacOS is capable of connecting to AV名湿1x and AV名湿 with no additional setup; Windows, Linux, and mobile phone users may have some additional setup required to connect successfully.

Wireless Coverage

Wireless is available in all buildings on campus, as well as some outdoor areas near buildings. Wireless is not generally available in larger outdoor areas. AV名湿 actively monitors and adjusts placement of wireless access points to fine-tune coverage on campus. Due to channel interference among other complications, users are generally not allowed to operate a personal wireless network. If you are experiencing problems with wireless coverage, please contact the CUS Help Desk (777-7525, x7525 from an on-campus phone).

Please contact the CUS Help Desk if you have any questions or problems accessing AV名湿's wireless network.
