Wi-Fi networks

You can connect to the secure campus network, ������Ƶ, from any res or cluster housing building. A second network, ������Ƶ-BYOD, supports home entertainment and other electronic devices that don't work with ������Ƶ Wi-Fi.

Data ports

Every room in residence and cluster housing has an Ethernet data port. We connect them to the Internet by request.

To use the data port in your room, you’ll need to contact us. You’ll need to include the room and port number in your request. You can find the port number labelled on the metal wallplate in your room. Once it’s active, you can use a network cable to connect your computer.

If your data port is damaged or if you can’t find the room or port number, contact Residence Services for help.

Family housing

Internet service isn't included in family housing. You can subscribe for $25 per month.

Terms of use

All the terms of ������Ƶ Acceptable Use of Information Systems policy apply to the use of Internet in residence except that personal use isn't restricted. Other ������Ƶ policies (including the policy on non-academic misconduct) and federal, provincial and local laws apply.

We may disconnect devices that are exposing security vulnerabilities, degrading network performance for other residents, or otherwise in violation of policies or laws. Other possible responses are outlined in those policies.

Prohibited devices

Devices that create or broadcast a wireless network of their own are prohibited. This includes network routers, switches and extenders. It also includes many wireless printers and other accessories which create local peer-to-peer networks to connect to a computer, phone or tablet.

These devices cause substantial interference with ������Ƶ wireless access points, making wireless connections slower and less stable for everyone in the area.
