WiFi & Internet

Residents can access the Internet from outlets and wireless access points in their room.

Connection Instructions


Wired Network

To get connected to the wired network in your room, you will need a compatible ethernet cable and a device with an ethernet port. Some devices without ethernet ports support ethernet adapters, in which case a supported adapter would also be needed. To connect to the wired network, plug your ethernet cable into the wired jack in your room.


Wireless Network

A high-speed wireless network is available in living units and public areas of the residence communities.
