VSU Wireless
The university’s wireless network provides fast and reliable connectivity in all residence halls, academic and administrative buildings, auditoriums and dining spaces. Approximately 1600 access points (AP) are placed in high-density usage areas to support coverage and advanced caching capabilities are implemented to support iOS updates and high-definition (HD) media streaming (i.e. Netflix and YouTube).
The wireless networks are based on these standards: 802.11g/n, 802.11an, and 802.11ac. For the best experience, it is recommended that computers be equipped with a minimum of 802.11ac wireless adapters.
VSU offers 3 WiFi networks:
- VSU Wi-Fi = a secure and encrypted connection that requires authentication through VSU login credentials. This network is geared for use by VSU students and employees.
-
VSU-Guest = an open and unsecured connection designed for visitors on campus. By default, a guest account is valid for 5 days.
The VSU-Guest network is also used by resident students to connect gaming and entertainment devices that do not support our advanced 802.1X/AES framework and encryption standards.
-
eduroam = a secure and encrypted connection that is available to students, faculty, and staff associated with another higher education institution that is participating in the EduRoam project. If available, select eduroam from your list of networks and enter the email address and password from your home institution to connect.
A third-party network is also available:
WAAV-Valdosta = an open WiFi connection that is available on VSU shuttle and athletic buses.
