Overview of All Available PSU Wi-Fi Networks

The following Wi-Fi networks are available on the PSU campus:

  • PSU Secure - The recommended option for anyone with an Odin account, this wireless network encrypts the internet traffic from your computer to the wireless access point, providing additional security for your data.

  • PSU Registered - This network is for devices such as gaming consoles and streaming media devices, that do not support 802.1x (WPA2-Enterprise) authentication. Instead, this network uses WPA2-Personal (PSK) authentication.

  • PSU Guest - Visitors to campus who need Wi-Fi access for 24 hours or less can use this network. Learn more about Guest Wi-Fi at PSU.

  • Eduroam - This network allows students and faculty visiting from across the globe to access the internet using PSU’s Wi-Fi with their home school’s credentials. Learn more about Eduroam Wi-Fi roaming service.

Wireless Machine Authentication

Wireless machine authentication takes place whenever a computer with Wi-Fi is powered on to provide a persistent wireless connection. Additionally, wireless machine authentication keeps users on the PSU network even after changing Odin passwords, facilitates faster logins, and ensures Remote Assistance - Bomgar can continue even if the machine is logged out.

Wireless machine authentication is automatic for all PSU-owned machines. Users do not need to do anything for it to be set up.
