How to Connect to csu-visitor wireless

Visitors to Colorado State University can connect to the csu-visitor wireless network for free short-term internet access. It is intended for guests and is not secured and does not have access to internal campus resources, so avoid sending sensitive information. Access lasts 24 hours, and visitors staying longer must re-register each day. Members of the CSU community should use the csu-net network, while visitors from institutions participating in eduroam can connect via that network for secure access.
