Over the past year, TS has utilized a product called SafeConnect on the residence hall network to ensure a safe computing environment for all users. On August 18, we extended this system to cover the university’s entire wireless network.

If connected to the Loggers wireless network with a personal computer, members of the campus community will be prompted to login with Puget Sound credentials in order to download a Connect Key. Once installed, the key ensures connecting computers meet these requirements before accessing the network: 1) automatic updates enabled, 2) anti-virus software running, and 3) no illegal peer to peer programs running.

After this one-time installation, users will find it much more convenient to access the wireless network. For more information, see our page on the Connect Key.
