OIT Makes Significant Progress on Wireless Expansion

This year, OIT has been extending the physical scope of the university’s wireless network by installing wireless access points in residence halls and expanding coverage in other campus locations. By January, the network’s 3,474 access points will provide wireless Internet access in all of the university’s residence halls and academic buildings, including the South Campus Commons and University Courtyards (not on map above) apartment complexes.

On an average weekday, more than 10,000 unique users log on to the university’s wireless network. If you’d like to join them, please visit www.oit.umd.edu/wireless for more information.


Nearly every university building now has wireless coverage. See the most current coverage on a more detailed map at www.oit.umd.edu/nts/noc/wireless/map.html.
