New Phase III Campus Wireless a reality
by Kathleen McCoy |
Over the past year, Phase III of the UAA wireless campus network has been in the works
in Anchorage. Engineers have responded to requests for better coverage by dramatically
increasing the number of access points from less than 100 to over 300. The new network
delivers two distinct services geared to the needs of our community.
A UAA WiFi-Public service retains open-access service familiar to most over the past
several years but limits both speed and certain access. It is intended for visitors
to the University.
A second service, UAA WiFi-Full Access, provides access comparable to wired campus
connections but requires that users login with their UAA username/password credentials.
It is intended for employees or students of the University of Alaska system.
Users can find more information about how to connect to these two new Phase III wireless
services at http://technology.uaa.alaska.edu/computer/network/wireless/ . More general details can be found at http://technology.uaa.alaska.edu . Users may also contact the IT Call Center at (907) 786.4646 or (877) 633.3888
