Consoles (wireless)

IOT Devices
Connect streaming and smart devices to MichiganTechIOT.
Please follow the instructions at Connecting a Device to Resnet for the specific steps. You'll need to register and enable Airgroup on both your streaming/smart device and your set-up device, typically your phone, in ClearPass, for the set-up process.
Ethernet ports in rooms
Each room in the residential halls has one active ethernet port. Please look for the ethernet jack marked with a sticker. We do not change which port is the active one, nor do we add more. For more information please read: Connecting a device to Reset.
Any switches you use must be unmanaged. There are a limited number of ethernet switches available at the residential hall front desks, available on a first come, first served basis.
If you use a router, disable its wireless signal output.
Spectrum U
You do not have access in your room to SpectrumU in DHH, McNair, or Wads. The TVs in the kitchenettes do have access to SpectrumU.
