For those without accounts, there are two ways to access the wireless network.

1. The simplest is to simply connect to the network named “UofM Guest”. You can use any existing email address to log in to this network.
2. Staff and faculty can also sponsor short-term wireless access for another person. The access expires at midnight after 4-5 days. Go to https://www.umn.edu/dirtools/sponsor-wireless for more information and to sponsor an account. Your guest should then be able

to use this account to connect to the “UofM” or “UofM Secure” networks.

Further instructions are available at the U of M Wireless information page.

If you have guests who will be here for a longer stay, we can create guest accounts for longer periods than the above system. Send a request to net@physics.umn.edu. We absolutely need the following information to create the account, please make sure you provide all of it. It's a long list, but without it we cannot get the account created.

• Guest name
• Their organization
• Their email address which cannot be at umn.edu
• Their address, city, state, zip
• Their phone number

Once the account is created, the access details are sent to the supplied email address.

Requests for guest accounts for conferences can be made in a similar way, except a small charge applies. Full information on the types of wireless accounts, and the charge scale for conferences, is available at http://www.umn.edu/wireless/information/access/conference/index.html

Registered wired network access is not available for guests apart from very special circumstances.
