The UPIKE Wi-Fi network access is available across the campus. The following is a brief description of the most common
Wi-Fi Networks (SSIDs) that are seen on-campus. The SSIDs that can be seen will depend on your location. Please notice
the distinction between secure and non-secure. The secure connections use encryption between the wireless device
and the access point. Our system is using a dynamic pre-shared key setup; this key is assigned to the user account and is
different for each user. Networks defined as non-secure are similar to a coffee shop Wi-Fi. For more information see
our list of Wireless Best Practices and FAQs located at
