This page explains how ACM members, and authorized guests, can setup access to the ACM's internal WiFi network. This network shares similar properties as the LAN network, but is located on a different subnet. If you are trying to add wireless access for an device owned and managed by the ACM, please instead reference to this page as the procedures are not identical.
