As part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining a secure and efficient network environment, we would like to inform you of some upcoming changes to our guest WiFi access in the ANR building at 2801 Second Street in Davis.
On Feb. 26, we will be implementing enhanced security measures, which will include a change in the guest WiFi password. The new password will be printed on the IT Help Desk door in the ANR building in Davis for a duration of 7 days, starting from Feb. 26. During this time, please update your personal devices with the new password to ensure uninterrupted access to the guest WiFi.
Additionally, to further enhance security and maintain proper tracking of network usage, we will be introducing a new splash page for guests connecting to the guest WiFi. This splash page will require some basic information to be filled out to help us keep accurate records of who is accessing the network.
Here are the key points to note:
New Guest WiFi Password: The new password will be displayed on the IT help desk door from Feb. 26 for a period of 7 days. Please update your devices during this time.
Splash Page: A new splash page will be introduced for guests connecting to the guest WiFi. Guests will be prompted to provide some basic information to assist in maintaining accurate network usage records.
IT Support After 7 Days: If you are unable to access the new guest WiFi password within the 7-day period, or if you encounter any issues, please submit a ticket to the IT help desk via email at help@ucanr.edu
Staff Devices on Guest WiFi: To ensure the efficiency of our network, we kindly request that staff members connect their personal devices to the guest WiFi.
ANR Staff WiFi will remain the same. All ANR employees should use the standard ANR Staff WIFI for any ANR-owned devices such as laptops or ANR-owned cell phones.
We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we work to enhance the security and efficiency of our network infrastructure. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to help@ucanr.edu
Thank you!
