Connecting to APU-MYDEVICES

This network will provide internet and network resources to devices pre-registered at mydevices.apu.edu (i.e. gaming systems and televisions). 

 Connect your Android and iOS phones and tablets to APUWIFI instead.

Connecting a device to the MyDevices network can vary depending on the device and where it has the MAC address located. The MAC address is made of six alphanumeric number pairs separated by colons like this A1:B2:C3:D4:E5:F6. This is usually located in the settings of the device and then in network settings. Device-specific instructions for finding your MAC address are available in step 4 of this article.
