Wireless SSID changes
On Monday, October 11, 2010 the FAUBETA wireless network will become the FAU wireless network. The new network allows wireless access without having to authenticate repeatedly. You will be asked to perform a one-time device registration after which you will no longer have to authenticate to the network – you can just connect! If you registered your device on FAUBETA during the trial phase you will not need to re-register. Just select the FAU wireless network and connect.
In addition, the FAUGUEST wireless network will be launched to provide wireless access to university guests, such as guest speakers, those attending conferences, and others visiting the campus for a short time. FAUGUEST users can login with a guest FAUNet ID and password. FAUGUEST is also available to any user with an FAUNet ID who does not wish to register his or her device on the FAU network.
More information about FAU’s wireless networks is available at http://www.fau.edu/irm/wireless.
For Faculty and Staff
FAUSECURE will be retired on October 11 with the introduction of FAUWPA2, which will allow secure access to Banner over wireless. Detailed instructions on how to connect are available at http://www.fau.edu/irm/wireless/.
