RossWirelessSecure - Most Secure Network


Ross is proud to announce RossWirelessSecure. This network is both more secure than the previous RossWireless network, and easier to connect to for a majority of users. Instead of downloading a separate program, all you have to do now is connect to the network and enter your Active Directory password.

Note: The previous RossWireless and RossWirelessClassic networks were discontinued on August 15, 2010. To have secure, high-speed internet access, you will need to use RossWirelessSecure.
  1. From your computer's available wireless networks, select RossWirelessSecure.
  2. When the login box appears, enter your UM uniqname and Active Directory password (not Kerberos). If you do not know your Active Directory password, please see Services->Accounts on the top menu.
  3. If prompted to accept a certificate, choose Accept.

You should now be connected to RossWirelessSecure.
