Using OARS From Outside U-M
As a security step, users connecting to OARS from a non-UM network, such as a public WiFi or home network, must use the appropriate U-M Virtual Private Network (VPN) client for your campus. See Use a Secure Internet Connection to download the VPN for your campus.
- Note that MGuest is considered a non-UM network.
- Connections through wired ethernet on campus and MWireless are secure and do not require VPN.
