| How To Get Wifi At Fresno State |
Signing in as a Fresno State Student: Welcome to the Pack!
First things first, Bulldogs. If you're a glorious Fresno State student (like, duh, why else would you be reading this?), then you have access to the magical Eduroam network. It's like Hogwarts for wifi, but with less owls and more lectures (although some lectures might feel like they involve owls delivering existential dread).
Here's the lowdown on snagging that sweet Eduroam goodness:
- Device Dance: Whip out your trusty phone, laptop, or tablet (because who carries a desktop around anymore?). Find the wifi settings and connect to the "Bulldogs" network.
- The All-Knowing Browser: Open your favorite web browser. Don't worry, it won't judge you for all those questionable searches from last night (probably).
- Welcome to the Login Portal: A magical page will appear, prompting you to login. Look, another login? We feel your pain. But this is where the Eduroam magic happens.
- Fresno State Frenzy: Enter your Fresno State email address (including the "@mail.fresnostate.edu" part) and your usual email password. Think of it as the password to Narnia, but with less wardrobe malfunctions (hopefully).
- Voila! You're connected! Now go forth and conquer the internet, you glorious Bulldog scholar!
Important Note: If you're having trouble connecting, don't despair! The IT folks at Fresno State are there to help. Just channel your inner tech superhero and visit the Fresno State IT Help Desk [somewhere on the Fresno State website].
Reminder: Short breaks can improve focus.
Guest Wifi: Surfing the Web for a Day
Maybe you're a prospective student, a visiting scholar, or just that lost friend who keeps showing up at your dorm. Fear not, weary traveler! Fresno State offers guest wifi for a day.
Just follow the same steps as the students, but when you get to the login page, click on the "Need to register as a guest?" link. Fill out the short form, and Fresno State will send you a temporary username and password (kind of like a wifi day pass).
Remember: This guest wifi is just for a single day. Don't try to pull a fast one and become a permanent wifi squatter. Fresno State has ways of knowing these things (probably something to do with owls... just kidding... maybe).
QuickTip: Pause to connect ideas in your mind.
