Where can I access the Wi-Fi at Hendrix?

Hendrix College has wireless network access throughout the campus. This network has been designed to provide coverage in all residence halls, all academic buildings, and some outdoor spaces on campus, especially, the Mills-MCR-DW Pecan Court. 

What devices does the Hendrix HelpDesk offer wireless network support for?

Hendrix provides a fast wireless network for student-owned laptops, desktop computers, and mobile devices, as well as all campus-owned technology. To manage traffic, bandwidth and security, Hendrix also offers a separate, slower network ("Internet Of Things") exclusively for devices such as XBox, PlayStation, Smart TVs, etc. 

To reduce the possibility of network interference, any wireless access points not owned and installed by Hendrix College are prohibited.

Wireless Access for Guests

What wireless specifications are supported by the Hendrix Wireless network?

  • For optimal wireless connectivity we recommend your computer support Wi-Fi 6 or greater. The College's wireless network can support older versions, but they will be slower.
