Internet & WiFi in the Residence Halls

Staying connected is easy! Your internet in the residence halls is provided by Boldyn Networks and includes both WiFi and Ethernet (wired) access.


Step 1: Connect to WiFi

  1. Open your device’s WiFi settings
  2. Select “MyResNet Start Here”
  3. Open a browser and follow the setup instructions
  4. Create your account and register your device

Once set up, you’ll be able to connect your devices to the network.

👉 Tip: You can connect multiple devices like your phone, laptop, gaming system, and more.


Step 2: Using Ethernet (Wired Internet)

Want a faster, more stable connection? Use Ethernet:

  • Plug an Ethernet cable into the wall port in your room
  • Connect the other end to your device
  • Open a browser and complete the login/registration if prompted

Ethernet is available in residence halls and may require device registration before it works.


Step 3: Register Your Devices

Some devices (like gaming consoles, smart TVs, or streaming devices) may need to be registered before they connect.

  • Visit the internet setup portal
  • Add your device
  • Follow the prompts to get connected
