Project Progress
Thanks to the investment of university and System leadership, the Next Generation Aggie Network will put Texas A&M on track to expand our impact and increase innovation. The network will be faster, stronger and more secure.
Coupled with long-term, sustainable funding and service delivery strategies — the new network will provide a modern, resilient and secure research and education network to better meet the future demands of Texas A&M educators, researchers and students.
Project Update
It has been a busy year for the Next Generation Aggie Network project. During the spring semester, the project team installed more than 1,000 wireless access points each month! Updates to the Memorial Student Center and Rudder are now complete. The project team added 457 wireless access points and updated 62 network switches to ensure these buildings have the best possible network connectivity.
This summer, the focus will shift to the residence halls and wireless access points will be added to over 20 dorms to increase WiFi coverage before students come back for the fall semester. This August, the team will revisit all the buildings that have been upgraded this year to verify things are working as expected and remediate any issues they uncover.
