FAQ: Wireless Access to the Internet

NOTE: Secure wireless network access (RUWireless) is being offered by the Office of Information Technology (OIT) in many locations throughout the University, including some of the libraries. This is not a service of the Rutgers University Libraries. For background, see the OIT Wireless LAN Policy.

Where is wireless access to the Internet available at the Libraries?

The RUWireless Coverage Zones are marked on building maps provided by the Office of Information Technology (OIT). At this time, maps are only available for the New Brunswick and Piscataway campuses. Specifically, the libraries with wireless network access include Alexander, Art, Chang, Douglass, Kilmer, LSM, Math, and the SERC.

In Camden, access is available on all three floors of the Robeson Library. In Newark, access is available in the South Wing of the First and Second Floors of the Dana Library. Access is also available in the North Wing on the Fourth Floor.

Who may use wireless access to the Internet at the Libraries?

Any Rutgers University student, staff or faculty member with a valid NetID (Clam, Crab, Eden, RCI, Pegasus, or Andromeda username) can log into RUWireless with that username and password.

How do I configure my laptop for wireless access to the Internet?

Please refer to the Configuration Pages provided by Rutgers University Computing Services. Newark users may also consult the Newark Computing Services' Wireless on Campus page.

Who can I ask for help?

You may wish to consult the RUWireless FAQ page for New Brunswick and Piscataway. Otherwise, you can send e-mail or call:
