  • Devices must support 5GHz or 6GHz WiFi. We no longer use 2.4GHz for WiFi.

  • Two WiFi networks are available in the Reshalls above: SU-secure and SU-visitor

  • SU-secure

    • Recommended for use with computers, laptops, tablets, and smartphones

    • Requires authentication with a valid SeattleU username and password

    • Provides access to the internet. Provides access to select internal systems based on your status as a student (vs faculty, staff, etc)

    • There is no bandwidth (throughput) restriction applied to your SU-secure connection(s)

  • SU-visitor

    • Requires device registration instead of user authentication

    • The communication between your device and our wireless access point is not secured by SU-visitor. If your device initiates a secure connection to the remote system, the local traffic between your device and our wireless access point is secured.

    • There is a 100Mbit/sec bandwidth (throughput) restriction applied to each SU-visitor connection

    • Provides access to the internet. No access to any internal systems.

    • SU-visitor has two use cases:

      • Internet access for devices that are not compatible with SU-secure (such as using only a password to access a WiFi network), or are used daily or multiple times each week and the process of re-registering a device every 24 hours would be inconvenient. Such devices include gaming consoles, entertainment systems, audio/video streaming devices, TVs, personal assistants, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices.

      • Short term ad-hoc use by visiting family members, friends, or summer event attendees

    • You can register your device once for SU-visitor access through the current school year ending Spring quarter in June. See Can I connect my TV/game console/streaming device to SeattleU Wi-Fi?

...

Yes. Residents in Bellarmine, Campion, Chardin, Douglas, Murphy Apartments, and Xavier are allowed to setup and use a wireless printer for their personal use. The device must support Bluetooth (our preference) or create a personal WiFi network to which your device connects. You cannot connect your wireless printer to either SU-secure or SU-visitor and print to it from your device, as this is considered peer-to-peer traffic on our WiFi networks and is blocked by default. Please consult the Setup guide for your wireless printer to configure either Bluetooth or wireless printing.
