Ohio Wesleyan is a Bring Your Own Device campus. You’re welcome to bring mobile devices, and use them on our WiFi. Device registration happens automatically on BishopNet. The links below are for devices that are not compatible with BishopNet and wired devices in residence halls that still have ethernet ports. Campus visitors and guests should use BishopGuest instead. Registration is required for all such devices, whether connecting by WiFi or wired.
Please note: the registration pages linked below are only available while connected to the OWU campus network.
You’ll first need to obtain the MAC/PHYSICAL/HARDWARE address of the device you’d like to connect. It’ll have numbers and/or letters in six pairs, like this:
aa:bb:cc:11:22:33 or this: aa-bb-cc-dd-11-22
REGISTER a device on BishopGuest. This is for any device not capable of connecting to BishopNet, (usually due to our enterprise security.)
REGISTER a device on our WIRED residential network. This is for devices that don’t have a web browser, but have a network (ethernet) port.
