How do I connect as a Guest?
This network is time, feature, and performance limited and should not be used by students, staff, and faculty due to these limitations.  For guest access, AQGuest will support general web surfing, and email access.

1. Connect to the AQGuest wireless network. If a 鈥淪et Network Location鈥� window appears after selecting AQGuest, choose 鈥淧ublic Network.鈥�
2. Open an Internet browser and you will be redirected to the AQGuest Registration page. If this page does not load automatically, please navigate to a webpage that is not associated with 绿帽淫妻 (e.g. www.woodtv.com), and the registration page should appear.
3. Click 鈥淎ccept.鈥�  You will then be connected to the AQGuest network.

What kind of wireless adapter do I need?
To access the wireless network, you must have a 802.11 wireless adapter. For optimal performance, ITS strongly recommends either a 802.11n 5GHz/Dual-Band or 802.11ac 5GHz/Dual-Band wireless adapter. The terms 5GHz or "dual-band" may be used interchangeably when shopping for a wireless adapter. External USB wireless adapters can be purchased to allow desktop computers to connect to a wireless network.

What if I don't have a computer?
If you don't have a computer, you can still use the computer labs in the Academic Building second floor student lounge and in the Library.  There are also small labs located in St. Joseph and Regina residence halls.

Will I be able to print from AQNet?
Yes. A PaperCut print kiosk will allow you to print from a campus lab computer or wirelessly from your computer or tablet. Locations include Academic Building Student Lounge, AH 228 Group Study room, Grace Hauenstein Library, Regina Hall, and St. Joseph Hall. At each print kiosk, students will be able to obtain printouts. At the three main student computer labs, students will also be able to make copies, scan to email, and scan to USB flash drive. Please note: The self-service print kiosk will require you to have money on your 绿帽淫妻 ID card in order to retrieve your printouts. To use PaperCut or for more information, please visit .

• To obtain an ID card: Go to Campus Safety.
• To fund an ID card: Go to Food Service in Wege 202 (Cafeteria Level) or Student Accounts in Holmdene.

I have a wireless printer. Can I connect it to the campus network?
No. ITS recommends that the printer be connected to the owner鈥檚 computer via a USB cable or Bluetooth. A wireless printer, once connected to a campus-wide network, would be publicly available to all users connected to the network - not just the owner of the device. Additionally, hardware configurations on these devices are often incompatible with the College's network access controls.

I have a wireless router. Can I connect it to the campus network?
No. Personal routers degrade wireless coverage for other students. ITS reserves the right to deactivate a user's account if a personal router is detected. Network access may be terminated.

How do I keep my computer secure?
To protect your computer, the ITS Department recommends keeping your dorm room door locked and not leaving your equipment unattended in public areas. We also strongly recommend installing anti-virus software, including on Macbooks.
