UAWiFi Wireless Network

Wireless networking, within the Eller College of Management, is provided by the UA Wireless network (also known as UAWiFi). For more information on the UAWifi network please visit the UAWifi web page.

Wireless Network connectivity is designed to supplement the existing building wired network and is not meant as a replacement for the wired network.

While the ability to connect to the internet without a wire is beneficial, current wireless technology is not designed to handle high-bandwidth/high-density applications. The overall benefits for wireless technology are the enhanced mobility that it provides for notebook users and the ability to provide network access to areas where wired installation would be difficult or very costly.

Practically all of McClelland Hall is covered by a wireless network. 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11a wireless standards are provided throughout the building as well as outside patio areas.

In order to connect and use the UAWifi network, you must complete a few registration steps and configure your wireless card. Note that you should only have to do this once. Please visit the UAWifi web site for registration and configuration information:
