Documentation

NMU Wireless internet is available on registered computers all over campus for students, staff, retirees, and faculty. Visitors without NMU credentials can connect using the NMU_GUEST access points after agreeing to the acceptable use policy. 

NMU_GUEST access is restricted to common protocols used for web and email access. If you are a guest and can't access what you need using the guest access, contact the department you are visiting to see if they can sponsor you as a guest on the NMU network, which should provide you with the access you need. See "Sponsoring a Guest on the NMU Network" for details.
