We in the Information Technology office have been busy the last several months upgrading the wireless network on our campus to the new high speed draft “N” standard. The current wireless network called “CINE” is still available but will now work at the higher speeds in existing locations. The CINE wireless network now has access to limited resources without registration and full access to resources through registration. So registration is still recommended.
There is also new network available called “Claremont” that is still in a development stage that can also be accessed. This will require your regular network login through a captive portal and then it provides full access to network resources. Feel free to try this out and use it as much as you would like. This work is being done in conjunction with the entire consortium and provides for seamless roaming from campus to campus where coverage is provided.
WHAT YOU NEED TO START:
To begin using the wireless network, you must first register your wireless network card(s) MAC (physical hardware) address with Pitzer Information Technology. Registration will allow you to access the Internet outside of the Claremont Colleges, and access to most of the existing Claremont Colleges wireless locations without having to register at every college.
If you need assistance obtaining the MAC address of your wireless card, please see Finding my Wireless Card Address or contact Resnet. Once you have submitted this form, a representative from Information Technology will contact you when registration is complete, (usually taking 24 hours).
To view current wireless locations, please see map below.
