RUWireless is the new open wireless network that only encrypts your login credentials (NetID and password).  All other data is unencrypted. This network is used for:

  • Onboarding – initially connecting and configuring RUWireless Secure
  • Unencrypted wireless access for Rutgers guests who do NOT have a NetID and password

RUWireless Secure is the preferred encrypted wireless network.  It requires an initial one-time configuration per device and then allows those devices to automatically connect to the secure wireless network for all future connectivity.  Although the RUWireless Secure network will not be visible if you have not completed the initial configuration, RUWireless Secure is available anywhere RUWireless is broadcast.

RUHealthSciences provides secure wireless access to RBHS resources for RBHS faculty, staff and students.

eduroam® (education roaming) is the secure, world-wide roaming access service developed for the international research and education community.  This service allows all Rutgers University faculty, staff, and students to take advantage of free and secure wireless service when visiting an eduroam member university, and allows visitors from member universities wireless access when visiting Rutgers.
