Please take action: Apple users need to update software to improve Wi-Fi

December 14, 2022

To our campus community,

Apple released updates to their software yesterday that resolve the issues that have been impacting Wi-Fi connectivity on their devices. Our network team has worked to confirm the updates rectified the problems that have been reported. 

We encourage everyone to install these updates to the current operating system version installed on their devices. Important: MacOS Monterey users should NOT update to Ventura at this time, please just accept the software update for Monterey.
