<Title>Wireless Upgrade Project for January 2022</Title>
<Tagline>We are replacing wireless access points across campus</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span><p><span>DoIT is excited to announce that during January we will be replacing more than 1,000 wireless access points throughout academic, administrative and support buildings on campus. We are taking measures to minimize disruptions however, some areas may see momentary impacts to wireless service. </span></p>
    <br><p><span>We expect that each building will require approximately 3 days of work to complete and we will complete each building before moving on to the next. During the work for your building please be patient as we try to complete your area as quickly as possible while also making our best efforts to maintain stable service.</span></p>
    <br><p><span>Replacing wireless access points will modernize the wireless infrastructure and provide faster connections, better wireless coverage and an overall improved experience to the UMBC community. </span></p>
