Wireless PennNet@University Square

A new wireless LAN is being piloted in the heart of the newly named University Square (within the circle below) with other installations planned for the coming months. Wireless PennNet@University Square should provide "reliable network access " according to ISC. ISC Networking and Telecommunications has adopted this phased approach to wireless which will allow Penn faculty, staff and students to securely authenticate via a wireless gateway. ISC will use the pilot to test hardware, establish usage patterns and make decisions about funding, support and scope of the new network.

To begin using Wireless PennNet users must be authenticated. For information see www.upenn.edu/computing/wireless/.
