St. John Fisher University provides wireless access in all buildings on campus including Residence Halls, Academic, and Administration Buildings. The university offers secure Wi-Fi networks to provide enhanced wireless connectivity to the Fisher Community. When purchasing a device that will connect to Wi-Fi on campus, make sure that it supports at least 802.11ax standard.
All faculty, staff, and students can connect to "SJF-WiFi" or "SJF-Legacy" (secure & encrypted) using their SJF network credentials.
In Academic & Administration Buildings, and Residence Halls
SJF-WiFi supports WiFi 7 standard and utilizes the WPA3 Enterprise protocol. WPA3 Enterprise is built into most current operating systems and mobile devices. Users connect to this primary network through a secured encrypted connection. The secure network is available for all St. John Fisher owned/managed devices as well as any personal devices (BYOD).
SJF-Legacy will utilize the WPA2 Enterprise protocol. WPA2 Enterprise is built into all current operating systems and mobile devices. Users connect to this secondary network through a secured encrypted connection. The secure network is available for all St. John Fisher owned/managed devices as well as any personal devices (BYOD).
SJF-Guest is an open wireless network routed directly to the Internet. The unencrypted public Wi-Fi connection provides basic access with no security and slower speed than SJF-WiFi.
