The School of Engineering is following NBCS wirless recomandations to the letter.
That policy can be found at
Rutgers Wireless LAN Policy
This policy covers security and coorindation of wireless channels. Other areas of Rutgers
have ignored these polices and have ended up with almost useless wireless system with
pratically no secureity.
Wireless should not be used for desktop systems. Wireless is 11 megabits shared networking.
Machines plugged into a hard-wired connection get 100 megabits private. Also wirelss does have
more security issues.
As of April 2005, Engineering B-wing and D-wing have RUWireless access and C-Wing is in
being worked on.
To access these networks you need either an eden or rci account.
This is the exact same system used in the student centers and other locations throughout the university.
For more information see
