ARCHIVED: Free connections to AT&T wireless for visitors to IU

Details for visitors to campus
To connect, make sure your device's wireless networking (Wi-Fi) is turned on, and select the "attwifi" network (SSID). You may need to start your web browser to finish authenticating to AT&T; for complete directions for several different devices, see AT&T's Wireless support.
If you need assistance, contact the Support Center. Visitors and guests at the Indiana Memorial Union (IMU) in Bloomington should contact the hotel front desk at 812-856-6381.
Important information for students, faculty, and staff
The free AT&T wireless service is intended only for visitors to IU campuses. Members of the IU community should instead use the IU Secure wireless service. Unlike the AT&T service, IU Secure provides wireless encryption; if you use AT&T's wireless, UITS cannot ensure the security of your connection, even to other IU services.
If AT&T Wireless is the provider for your wireless device, the device might automatically attempt to connect to the "attwifi" SSID, rather than to the "IU Secure" SSID. To avoid this, you should configure your mobile device to connect to IU Secure automatically.
