BereaBYOD Wireless

BereaBYOD

 

This wireless network services guests of the campus, but also provides a way for employees and students to connect various gaming, entertainment, or smart devices to the college network.

 

  • Guest of the college can use the BYOD portal to register a guest account.  This will provide wireless access for 24 hours.

    • To do so, visitors should connect to the BereaBYOD network and open a browser.  This will direct guests to the BYOD portal -- below the login prompt is an option to create an account.

    • Guests will need to provide a name, email address, and accept the terms of use. Once the account is created, a username, guest password, and expiration time will be provided.

 

  • Employees and students can register devices that are incompatible with the BCSecure network. 

    • Examples are Internet-of-Things (IoT) and Bring-Your-Own-Devices (BYOD) which may include gaming consoles, streaming devices, smart speakers, and other smart devices. 

    • These devices will often not allow you to connect to wireless with your username and password and will have the option to enter only the password to the network you are connecting to, or require you to connect to the device through an app on your phone.

 

Before registering devices to the BYOD network, you must know the MAC address of your device(s).  Below are instructions on how to connect to BereaBYOD and where to find the MAC address on common devices.
