UCAR Guest Wireless Network
As of August 2012, CISL implemented a simplified "UCAR Guests" wireless network that uses a password which will expire every Monday at 4:00 am Mountain Time. Anyone with a UCAS account can log in to the protected web page to get the weekly guest wireless password. This password can be given to guests and conference attendees. The UCAR Guests wireless network will work for laptops and mobile devices without the need for VPN or the decommissioned heartbeat page.
The following week's password will be provided the Friday prior. This is useful for those of you who are hosting visitors or a conference on Monday morning and wish to print up conference materials containing the wifi password the Friday before.
Steps for guests to connect their laptop/gadget to UCAR Guest wireless:
- Obtain weekly password from a staff member (see below).
- Connect laptop to network titled, “UCAR Guests.”
- Input password when prompted. Password will expire every Monday.
To obtain the weekly password, anyone with a UCAS password can go to:
https://guest.wireless.ucar.edu/
Click the “I Agree” button to view a page with the password.
