Network access through an Open Network wallplate requires you to register your Ethernet card with
NTS. This is a one-time process and can be done from any active wallplate on campus (including
an Open Network wallplate). You will need the following information to register:
|
- Your WAM ID/Password
- The MAC address of your Ethernet Card
|
PLEASE NOTE:
If after registration, you change your ethernet card, you MUST register
the new card in order to have continued access to the open networks.
