Use of Private LAN / Wireless Router on Virginia Tech Campus


Question:

How do I configure and secure a private LAN or wireless router at Virginia Tech?

Answer:

Students are not permitted to connect personal wireless routers to the Virginia Tech network.

Each residence hall room will have one active wired network portal. Residents may purchase a commodity Ethernet switch from the University Bookstore or other vendor to provide more wired network connections.

To connect to the eduroam wireless network, follow the instructions at Manually Connecting to Virginia Tech Wireless eduroam.
