Wireless Access
The purpose of AU Wireless is to provide identical, self-service access to wireless systems on every Antioch campus, allowing you to use only your normal user AUeID and password to login to the network. This eliminates the need for a new user to locate a technician to configure their machine for wireless access. And because the setup is the same for every campus, once a user has logged into a wireless network for the first time, their computer will subsequently connect to their appropriate wireless network on any AU campus.
While on campus, you will see the following three options for a wireless connection:
AU_Guest A network that does not require a login, but only has access to basic Internet services.
AU_Student A network that requires a student AUeID and password, and provides access to services appropriate for students.
AU_Staff A network that requires an employee AUeID and password, and provides access to services appropriate for employees.
First-time Staff and Student users must (one time only) connect to the AU_Guest network (because it doesn’t need a username and password), or use a wired connection, for the initial setup. (You can even do this initial setup from home!) Once on the network, open a web browser and go to: http://wireless.antioch.edu where you will see the following screen:
Click on Staff or Student as appropriate. (You must have appropriate credentials!) The application will then display a screen identifying the operating system detected. Your exact
screens may differ slightly from the ones shown here.
You may get a warning or request to accept an AU certificate. Click on the JoinNow button to proceed. Please run any applications if asked to do so. This can take some
time. Once the installer runs, you will see the following screen:
Enter your AUeID and password, then click Next (if asked about the Antioch University certificate, please accept it) Once the installation is completed you will be logged onto the AU_Staff or AU_Student wireless network.
Your web browser will be redirected to AUDirect: https://audirect.antioch.edu
You can log into AUDirect if you wish, or use your browser to go elsewhere.
Your wireless setup is now complete. From now on, you will automatically connect to the AU_Staff or AU_Student wireless network whenever you are in range. If you have a problem with the installation please contact the Help Desk at 1-866-662-0056 or on the web: http://helpdesk.antioch.edu
