How Secure Are the Wireless Networks on the Dartmouth Campus?

Details

It depends on which network you connect to:

• eduroam will encrypt data being transmitted between your computer and the wireless access point you are connected to. This is the most secure wireless network at Dartmouth and is recommended for all Dartmouth students, faculty, and staff.  For more information about eduroam including instructions on how to get connected as a Dartmouth user, please see wifi.dartmouth.edu
• Dartmouth Public is unencrypted, but if you are using this network and you start a VPN connection, the data being transmitted will be encrypted.
