All wireless networks will be offline: EECS-Secure, EECS-PSK, AirBears2, eduroam, and CalVisitor.

Please see the schedule below for information specific to your building. If you are currently working on campus, and depend on the wireless network in these locations, please consider working from an alternate location during your building’s maintenance dates.
