Information Technology Services (ITS) provides both wired and wireless network solutions throughout. This page will discuss the available networks, the intended users, and login information to get properly connected. A full list of devices you both can and can't connect to University networks can be found on the Using Devices on the Campus Networks page.

To report a damaged Ethernet port, including physical damage or non-responsive, please contact the ITS Help Desk by voice at 315.443.2677, by email at help@syr.edu, or by stopping into 1-227 Center for Science and Technology (hours of operation). Please have whatever port identifier available, it will typically be on a label above the port/socket. |
Main Campus Wired Network
Whether you are working for or visiting a location on campus and require an Ethernet connection, please contact the appropriate IT personnel to discuss registration of your devices and your individual user case. Contact information can be found on the academic or administrative support personnel pages.
Guests seeking a wired Ethernet connection should fill out the Wired Network Pre-Registration form.
Network routers
To better accommodate the varied devices students connect to the wired (Ethernet) network in residence halls (i.e. personal computers, gaming consoles, voice-over-Internet devices, and TiVo), ITS has approved the use of personal network routers in student rooms (sometimes called "broadband routers or "cable/DSL routers"). Routers must not have wireless capability (i.e. Apple Airports are not allowed) because wireless devices disrupt the network (wired and wireless). Information about purchasing and installing a router is available on the router web page.
Copyright Infringement
Any reported downloading or sharing of illegal copyright protected data (music, movies, software, games) will result in the student's computer being removed from the network (wired and AirOrangeX) until the matter can be resolved. Further information is available on Syracuse University's Copyright and File Sharing web page.
