Wireless


 ACPHS' wireless networks are available throughout all locations on the Albany and regional campuses.

 Wireless connectivity is accessed on one of our three main wireless networks. Access is granted automatically for students using the acp_student_wireless, for faculty and staff using the acp_employee_wireless, and for guests using the acp_guest_wireless. For students, faculty, and staff please login with your ACPHS username and password.

Please see our FAQ page for answers to frequently asked questions about ACPHS' wireless network.

Important things to know before connecting to ACPHS's Network

  • Your computer is your responsibility: ACPHS' IT department will do as much as we can, but we do not make repairs or offer service to personal computers and cannot be held responsible if your computer cannot be brought up to the minimum standards required by our Network Policies.
  • Computers with viruses or spyware may have their internet shut off to protect the integrity and performance of the student network. It may be a week or more before your computer can be reconnected. Don't let it happen to you!
  • All persons accessing ACPHS Network Resources must use a valid username and password, and comply with all ACPHS policies and all applicable laws and regulations. In addition, all computers must meet the following requirements:
    • The computer must be free of viruses and must be running a current (updated) version of anti-virus software.
    • The computer must be current with Operating System updates/patches, whether it is through Windows update or Mac OS patches.
    • The computer must be free of spyware. Utilizing free software such as AdAware or SpyBot is strongly recommended.
    • The computer name must match the individual’s username.
    • The supported platforms are Windows XP with Service Pack 3, and Windows Vista with Service Pack 1.
    • Game systems are not able to authenticate to our network and are therefore not supported.

ACPHS reserves the right to disconnect any user or computer from the ACPHS network at any time, without warning, to ensure network integrity.

ACPHS does not formally support or endorse any third party software or applications. Use at your own risk.
