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 is only one access point outdoors near the Mow flag pole. 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 two [http://www.arubanetworks.com/ Aruba] controllers, one at each campus. If you connect to one of the WPA2-Enterprise networks, your credentials are passed to our Active Directory servers via an NPS server running the RADIUS protocols. After connecting to the appropriate wireless network, all of your network traffic passes through two different firewalls: the Aruba controllers and a Palo Alto 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 Palo Alto firewall to monitor and filter your Internet access.
