An access point also known as a wireless access point (WAP) is the ceiling box in your apartment that connects to the Enterprise system that provides a WiFi signal throughout the community. It creates a wireless local area network or WLAN at Charlestown. The current ceiling box is a Cisco Catalyst 9115AX. Dual Band 2.4Ghz & 5.0Ghz.

If there is a concern, staff will conduct a survey to identify the best location in an apartment for the wireless access point.
