University Wireless Policies
University Policy on Deployment, Operation, and Registration Requirements for Wireless Access Points on PennNet states that unauthorized APs are not permitted in areas where AirPennNet is in operation. End users may request permission to install privately-owned APs in areas not serviced by AirPennNet. However, they must first register each device with ISC N&T. Please read further for more detailed information.
Wireless LAN Registration Required
ISC Networking & Telecommunications has established registration requirements for campus wireless APs in areas where AirPennNet is not in operation. Registering privately-owned APs allows ISC N&T to record and track the use of the unlicensed frequency range utilized by various wireless services and to coordinate the deployment of these APs to avoid situations in which local configurations result in frequency range conflicts that directly impact service to users. To comply with the University policy registration requirements, you can register your school/center's wireless LAN online. Please note that ISC N&T reserves the right to remove these wireless devices at a later date if AirPennNet is expanded into this same location.
