| The club has two wireless access points: one serving the "UCC" SSID and the other serving "UCC Public". | UCC offers its members wireless access to its network and its internet connection. It broadcasts the networks `UCC` (2.4GHz) and `UCC-5` (5GHz). There are a number of wireless access points around Cameron Hall run by UCC. These include: * `coromandel`, a 2.4/5GHz device placed on top of a corner of the machine room * `sharpchin`, a 2.4GHz device branded as "RouterBoard" located on a shelf in UniSFA * `abe`, an identical 2.4GHz "RouterBoard" device stuck to the wall above the cable housing in UWAnime. Until some time in May 2018, UCC also had a public wireless network which was broadcast from the top shelf of a rack in the machine room by {{{clearwing}}}, a 2.4GHz 802.11g device. It has since been deprecated. The UWA IT department, sometime shortly prior to 2018, decided to install 4 Unifi access points in Cameron Hall. Prior to this, UCC was the only source of WiFi in Cameron Hall. Currently the 2.4GHz spectrum is thoroughly congested and there are no unused channels. |

Windows 7
The following process will allow you to connect from a Windows 7 machine. The same or a very similar process will probably hold for other cases.
- From the taskbar or control panel, open the Network and Sharing Centre, then click "Manage wireless networks".
- "Add" a new wireless network, manually, with name "UCC", with WPA2-Enterprise security and AES encryption.
- From the next screen, click change settings. From the security tab:
- Click change settings. Ensure:
- "Validate server certificate" is unchecked.
- Authentication method is EAP-MSCHAP v2.
- From the settings button next to authentication method, "use Windows login information" is not checked.
- Click "Advanced settings". Ensure:
- "Specify authentication method" is checked.
- The authentication method is "user authentication". You can save your credentials here if you like.
- Click change settings. Ensure:
- You should now be able to connect with your normal UCC login name and password.
Other OSs
Probably just works (tm), choose PEAP-MSCHAPv2 or similar and your username/password.
