RUFA wireless is a project of the Rome University of Fine Arts to provide the installation of a wi-fi infrastructure for Internet connections. The aim of the project is to enable the academic community (students, faculty and staff) to access Web services using notebooks or handheld device / PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) equipped with wireless network adapter compatible with standard 802.11b and 802.11g.
You can surf the web in all our teaching and study structures (libraries, classrooms, teaching laboratories).
The identifier name of our wireless network (SSID) is Rufawifi and requires a passkey (i.e. WEP, WPA) for the connection. The connection is active 24 hours a day, every day.
The access is possible regardless of the operating system, feature that ensures full compatibility with handheld devices and wi-fi mobile phones, as well as all common laptops. The only requirement is a web browser installed.
The network parameters are obtained automatically through DHCP protocol: this means that you do not have to worry about the configuration of your device. To ensure the safety of the network access, is required user authentication. Once connected, to use the available services, you have to open your preferred web browser, access the start page and enter the access credentials. After these few simple steps you can freely surf the web with an internet connection speed up to 512 Kb/s download and 256 Kb/s upload.
The wi-fi Ethernet card must be compatible with the wirelessLAN IEEE 802.11b/g standard. All new devices are normally provided of it. The wireless network operates in 2.4 GHz radio band.

To be able to surf the internet in wi-fi mode at RUFA, you must be necessarily:
- RUFA Students
- RUFA Professor
- RUFA Technical and administrative personnel
Before you can connect to the service you have to specifically request for your web access credentials in our Secretariat.
