Campus Wireless Network

Introduction

The campus wireless local area network (WLAN) was started in the end of 2001 and in the early days its service was only restricted within some parts of the public areas like the Library, the International Conferencing Center, Banyan Tree Garden, Cheng-Kung Lake, and the Computer and Network Center. In 2004, the university started to use the email accounts to perform wireless network authorization and join national wide interscholastic wireless network roaming program proposed by NCHC. Via this interscholastic roaming mechanism, all faculty and students are able to enjoy the convenience of the wireless network while traveling across the different campuses and universities.
