Setting Up Your Own Wireless Network is Prohibited

Per the Wireless Deployment and Management Policy, approved by the CU IT Council on January 10, 2002, setting up wireless 802.11 access points without coordination with ITS is prohibited.

If you are interested in wireless coverage in your area, check the ITS Wireless Web site for current installation information, or contact the Wireless Access Team to get more information on establishing a departmental partnership for coverage.

Establishing a Partnership with ITS for a Wireless Network

 

Overview

UCB Wireless access can be found in almost all buildings on campus, in popular campus life locations, and in most residence halls (Kittredge Complex, Bear Creek, and Family Housing locations do not have UCB Wireless at this time). CU-Boulder’s wireless network consists of a number of permanently installed access points built with 802.11g network hardware that is WiFi certified (802.11b is also supported). The wireless network has been designed to augment but not replace the existing wired network, offering mobile connectivity and network accessibility from varied locations, such as the UMC, the Engineering Center, parts of Norlin Library, various high-tech classrooms, and many other convenient locations on campus.
