New changes are coming to the “University of Washington” Wi-Fi network. As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance our wireless network and provide you with a better online experience, we will implement changes to the “University of Washington” wireless networks to provide easier guest access to non-UW patrons and onboarding assistance for eduroam.
Ways to connect
Network access disabled? If your computer is associated with software piracy, has been hijacked by someone else, or is being used to send spam email, UW Information Technology (UW-IT) may disable its access to the Internet (sites within UW should still be accessible). If your computer is causing disruption to other users on campus then network access will be completely disabled. If your computer appears to be disabled, see the Disabled Network Service page for instructions.
