During the late summer of 2015 we completed full upgrade of the WiFi system on the Hill and River campuses in all school buildings. You may find a useful signal in nearby exterior locations, but there are few outdoor access points. If you find weak signal in an RCS building, please {{tsreq}} to help us improve the availability of the wireless network.

Awesome! Our wireless network is running on [http://www.arubanetworks.com/ Aruba] Aruba Central managed Instant Access Points. If you connect to one of the WPA2-Enterprise networks, your credentials are passed to a cluster of ClearPass Policy Manager servers that handle RADUIS authentication. After connecting to the appropriate wireless network, all of your network traffic passes through two different firewalls: the Aruba controllers and a FortiGate next generation firewall and web filter. This makes your computer very, very safe at Riverdale! All of your computer's network traffic passes through our FortiGate firewall to monitor and filter your Internet access.
