Overview
Cedar Crest College recognizes the critical nature of connecting to resources that are online; whether they are on a local network resource or the internet. To facilitate the increased mobility that is present on our everyday lives, the College has executed a plan to cover the campus in the FalconNet Wireless Network. This network ensures that all faculty, staff, and students can connect to their online resources with the best possible performance where they need to and when they need to. The map below shows where coverage is on-campus, and the legend below that explains what is where, and what kind of performance you can expect.
Note: if there is no coloring in an area, there is no purposeful coverage there. You should not expect to be able to work effectively from that area.
