Before connecting to our network be sure you have the following:

  • The proper security key (password) for the network you are connecting to.

Connecting to a network

  2. Tap on the desired network
  3. Enter the password (security key, link above) and tap Join.
  4. If a registration window does not open automatically, Open a web browser (e.g. Safari, Firefox, Chrome).
  5. Follow instructions displayed on the registration page to complete the wireless network registration process.
    1. If the browser does not show a registration page, try navigating to a site like willamette.edu,  It should reroute you to the Registration page.
    2. If you're using a device that also has a cellular data plan, disable your cellular data in order to force the device to use WiFi
