DLSL’s faculty, staff, and current students are welcome to use the DLSL Wireless ResNet, unless they have been denied that privilege, which is among the sanctions meted out for violations of this policy and other end-user policies of the campus.

The following basic guidelines are meant to demonstrate the flavor of the full policy. Decisions made by DLSL-ISD about the use of the WiFi service are binding.

• Definition
  The DLSL Wireless ResNet is the 802.11 network (currently "b" and "g") provided by the campus under WiFi SSID "iOTA".

• No Abuse
  The primary rule is that no user may interact with the WiFi system in such a way as to deny access to or use of the system by others.

• No Bridging
  Under no circumstances may anyone connect to the WiFi network a device that is configured to bridge network traffic. Similarly, users are forbidden from using the WiFi network while attached to any other network (wired or otherwise).

• Just Computers
  The only devices permitted on the WiFi network without prior express written permission are computers (laptops) and hand-held devices like Palm Pilots and PocketPCs. Video game units, wireless routers and access points, and all other devices are strictly prohibited.

• No Network Gaming. Network gaming is strictly prohibited. The DLSL ResNet (wired and wireless) can only be used for research and educational purpose. Using the DLSL ResNet other than official and personal enhancement is an outright violation of campus policies and will be sanctioned accordingly.

• No Pornography, No Propaganda
  The display, viewing or transmission of sexually-explicit images, messages or cartoons, hate propaganda or any transmission that contains ethnic slurs, racial epithets, or anything that may be construed as harassment or disparagement of others based on their race, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, religious or political beliefs, or any other unlawful material is not permitted before, during, or after business hours.

• No Large Downloads
  The bandwidth for wireless connection is shared between all wireless devices connected to an access point. Downloading excessively large files slows down the connection and may cause the access point to fail.

• No Fixed-Position Stations
  The campus WiFi network may not be used by fixed-position computers; it is not a primary network access method (that's for the wired network).

• No Password Sharing
  Users must not reveal their login information (name and password) to anyone for any reason. If you need your own login (and you will), contact ISD.

• Applicability of Other Rules
  The rules that apply to other DLSL computing structures (networks, computers) apply to the WiFi network.

• Punishment
  DLSL may punish violators through such things as revocation of network access and may refer them to the disciplinary body appropriate for the user in question (faculty, staff, and student disciplinary committees, Human Resources, Student Affairs, etc.).

That said, we do hope you enjoy using this system for legitimate purposes. All questions or comments should be sent to the ISD.
