As of September 2022 (by Khaoi Mady, ACT Director):

The new wireless networks named EMPLOYEE and STUDENT are now available to use by all Fullerton College employees and students. Use your email account’s username without the @fullcoll.edu and your password associated with your Fullerton College email address to connect to EMPLOYEE or STUDENT. Click TRUST CERTIFIFICATE if prompted by your device.

A comprehensive configuration and how-to connect webpage can be found here: https://fcnet.fullcoll.edu/configuration-training/.

This is only part of the wireless network refresh project. Outdoor wireless signals are still limited, but we are working on improving coverage. Current outdoor wireless coverage limitations are due to hardware backorders. FC STAFF and FC STUDENT wireless signals are still available, but we encourage you to use EMPLOYEE or STUDENT whenever possible. Please contact ACT Help Desk at acthelpdesk@fullcoll.edu if you have any issues regarding your connection to the new wireless network.

 

Staff, Faculty, and Hourly employees

 

Students

For more assistance or for persistent difficulties connecting to the Wi-Fi, please contact the ACT Help Desk at (714) 992-7111.
