Tutorial: Connecting to DHNet Wireless service
All of our wireless access points (WAP) have been upgraded to use the 802.1x authentication protocol. DHNet Wireless service is only available in the area commons of the residence halls and in the Maguire and University Village South (UVS) village communities. It can found by looking for "dhw" in your wireless settings. If you do not see "dhw" then you may be out of range.
NOTE: If you need to view instructions, a special SSID called "dhwInstructions" will allow you to get access to the DHNet Web site to view these instructions.
