Wireless - Apollo

Faculty, staff, and students who wish to connect their untagged devices (e.g., personal laptops, Internet of Things devices, gaming consoles, etc.) to the internet can use the Apollo network. Apollo offers non-secure connection to the internet, with no access to WCM systems or applications, apart from Papercut printing services. You can register untagged devices for Apollo access by visiting apollo.weill.cornell.edu from a computer connected to the WCMC network or to Cisco Secure client VPN. Review our instructions on how to self-register your IoT dorm devices for the Apollo network.  

You can access the Apollo wireless network in any Weill Cornell Medicine location, with the exception of NYP hospital space.
