Staff WIFI Instructions

We have several locations with Aruba wireless equipment and more are being added as funding is made available. To enable staff the ability to roam between these sites without having to login to a different network, we encourage the download and configuration of the Aruba Onboard App. This allows you to automatically connect to the UADA-Staff wifi at any Aruba location (listed below).

• Little Rock State Office (LRSO)
• 4H Center
• Jackson County Extension Center (JCEC)
• Northeast Rice Research and Extension Center (NERREC)

Note: If you haven’t installed the App yet, and you are on campus, you will need to temporarily connect to the "xxxx-Guest" wifi network to download and install the app. Once you get it installed, start with the first step.
