UCI-WiFi Network

Quicklink(s)

As part of our ZotDefend initiative to strengthen campus cybersecurity and improve wireless connectivity, we’re launching a new wireless network called UCI-WiFi.

UCI-WiFI is currently only available on UCI-managed devices

UCI-WiFi is currently only available if you have a UCI managed laptop. You will need to log in using your Microsoft 365 account. We will be expanding this in the next few months.

Trouble Connecting to UCI-WiFi with a UCI-Managed Device?
While the network has been rolled out, not all managed devices are currently ready to connect. Some systems still require additional software updates that will be rolled out in the next few weeks. In the interim, please continue to use UCInet Mobile Access.

UCI WiFi: Advanced Features for Enhanced Connectivity

As part of our ZotDefend initiative to strengthen campus cybersecurity and improve wireless connectivity, we’re launching a new wireless network: UCI-WiFi.

  • Enhanced Security
    UCI-WiFi safeguards your data and privacy with encryption using WPA2/WPA3.
  • Registration is Simplified
    You no longer need to register your MAC address to get access to the internet. You authenticate with your UCI Office 365 username and password.
  • Available Campuswide
    Currently, it is only available to devices provided and managed by UCI, but there will be broader availability in the next few months.
  • This Network Will Be Replacing UCInet Mobile Access
