When students arrive at their college housing, you can expect their bags to be packed with clothes, toiletries, bedding and at least 3 different mobile devices. The advancement of technology has hit the higher education sector making reliable Wi-Fi an essential utility tool for student housing. Whether you live on campus in the dorms or off campus in student housing, the need to have reliable Wi-Fi is a must. Residents expect to have Wi-Fi as an amenity allowing them to have the same comfort as at home.

Founded in 1925, Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris is a private foundation that doesn’t just serve one single university, but is a housing development for all students who attend a university in Paris, France.
