WWUwireless-Secure for Frequent Users

This secure wireless network - WWUwireless-Secure - is the one students, faculty, and staff should connect to with devices they regularly use on campus. You only need to authenticate the first time you connect, and after you change your universal password. When your device is in range of any of our wireless access points, it will automatically connect to the Internet.

Check for available wireless networks on your device and select WWUwireless-Secure. When prompted, log in with your universal username and password. Do not forget to accept the certificate. Most devices will prompt you to accept the certificate immediately after you login.

Some devices require manual certificate installation: Download Certificate and install per the instructions from the vendor for your device or operating system.
