Texas State provides a robust array of information resources and services, including two wireless networks: a private, encrypted network named
TXST-Bobcats and a public, unencrypted network named
TXST-Visitor. You must login using your Texas State NetID and password to connect to
TXST-Bobcats. In doing so, you establish a kind of protective wrapper around the information you send and receive during your wireless session, shielding that information from others on the network, including eavesdroppers using Firesheep or similar tools. It takes only seconds to login, so choose
TXST-Bobcats for your on-campus wireless access.
