Connecting + Driver Support

All University-managed devices are Wi-Fi 6 ready, and any personal device with wireless cards can connect at any campus Wi-Fi hot spot. But connecting in Wi-Fi 6-enabled locations may require a hardware and/or driver update for your personal device (depending on device age and other factors).

Mac

Driver updates come from Apple directly via the built-in OS Software Update.

PC

  • We recommend downloading driver updates for your specific device’s wireless card directly from the manufacturer's Support > Downloads/Drivers section.
  • Some manufacturers also offer a utility you can install to scan for and download available driver updates - search for "Support Assist" or "System Update" on the manufacturer's website.
