Wireless at NC State
Wireless access is available at an increasing number of locations on campus, and there are two features that make it easier to use.
Device Registration
When registered, your wireless device will automatically authenticate you whenever you connect to the network.
Here’s how to register it:
- Go to https://nomad.ncsu.edu
- Select Device Registration
- From the menu on the left, select Add Device
- Follow the subsequent instructions
- Watch for an e-mail prompt to re-register each semester
Wireless Access for Guests
By changing their service set identifier (SSID) to ncsu-guest, campus visitors can use the network, but can browse only Web addresses beginning with http or https. A visitor’s e-mail software or chat program will not work.
