Introduction:

The ETSU wireless network is available to ETSU students, faculty, and staff. If you have a wireless adapter (wireless card) in your computer, and the computer is within signal range, you will be able to connect to the ETSU network via a wireless connection. Security for all ETSU Wireless Access Points is enabled by PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol).

NOTE: Only some locations on campus have access to the wireless network. To see which locations have wireless access, visit the ETSU Interactive Campus Map and check the "Wi-Fi Hotspots" box in the upper right-hand corner.

If you have an ETSU computer, please see the connection instructions for ETSU computers.
