The IUP wireless network is available across campus, including the Oak Grove.
Wireless routers are positioned in many locations to provide the best overall coverage.
Please note: if you are experiencing slowness in the residential halls, the issue could be related to wireless printers broadcasting in your area. If you have further questions on possible issues, please log a ticket via ihelp so the issues can be researched further.
The wireless network requires an 802.11a/g/n/ac compliant wireless network card that supports the WPA2 security policy with AES encryption.
If you are unable to connect your device to the IUP wireless network, please visit our office in Delaney Hall for assistance.
