Body
Overview
Faculty and staff, by nature of their office location, will all have wired access to the network for their university-issued primary workstations (e.g., desktops, laptops). Additionally, wireless access is also available for any university-issued portable devices (e.g., laptops, tablets, phones) and personal devices used on campus.
Wired Network: Faculty/staff with a desktop should not have any steps they will need to take to connect to the campus network as it should always be connected. Should you have a portable device such as a laptop, as your primary workstation, it is highly recommended that you connect to the wired network whether connected directly to the network or via a docking station for the best experience.
Wireless Network: SMSU issued devices should automatically connect to the SMSU Wi-Fi when on campus. Faculty and Staff should connect their personal devices using SMSU MyWifi. Connection to this network will be granted after accessing the passphrase portal with the Office 365 credentials (StarID@minnstate.edu) and authenticating with the method of choice.
The portal's address is www.smsu.edu/mywifi-empl
