Wireless Network Change!

As of September 15th, Babson’s most commonly used wireless network, roam1, will be phased out and replaced with a more secure version.  This change does not affect computers directly connected by network cable.

The new wireless network is Babson.  This wireless connection will be the preferred method when using Babson College network resources.
 
A secondary wireless network is broadcast with the name OpenWireless (case sensitive).  This configuration is for individuals who are not administrators on their systems but need internet access while on campus and for visitors to the campus who would like internet access during their stay.  Many basic network resources can be accessed through the OpenWireless configuration by using the Babson Portal at http://portal.babson.edu.

For Undergraduate students in a T43 Laptop - Click here to run a file to update your laptop for the new network.

For Undergraduate students in a T60 Laptop - Your laptop is already configured for the new network.
