Welcome to IPTV

INTRODUCTION

This is a new network IP service (IPTV) that IT is adopting across campus to distribute live broadcast television, WPU locally produced programming, and I2 learning network content. This service is available to all resident students. It will allow students and faculty to receive this service over WPU wireless or wired network to any computer or mobile device giving all greater reach and flexibility. At inception it will carry 48 of the most popular channels available from the legacy Cable TV lineup. The legacy Cable TV service is still available in all residence halls for those who want to utilize traditional TV sets. The goal is to move the entire Cable TV service to the new IPTV system within 2 years.

Current supported clients are:

PCs with Chrome, Firefox with SilverLight plugin

Macs with MacOS with Safari or Chrome

iOS mobile devices such iPad or iPhone with Safari (An App will be available on the apple store later in October)

Android support is in final development


WPU IPTV is available at wpunj.edu/tv
