ResNet Registration

Students are able to register their computers and/or gaming consoles through an automated system. Every hall is equipped with a hub and three Ethernet cords; with the exception of Taylor Hall, which has three Ethernet cords only. Upon moving into the residence halls, a student would have to setup up their computer before the registration process can be started.

The following steps should be taken to register a computer:

• Run an Ethernet cord from the data jack to the hub in their room

• Run one of the remaining Ethernet Cords from the hub to the computer

• Roommate should also complete this step

If the student does not have a roommate, but multiple computers, then they should complete the steps above. If a student resides by themselves and has only one computer, they can run a cord from the data jack in their room to their computer.

Once all of the cords are plugged in, the student should open an Internet browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Safari, or Mozilla) and the registration page should come up. If the registration page does not come up, the student should type in the following address in the Internet browser’s address bar: http://www.resnetreg.housing.uwosh.edu.

The student should log in using their UW-Oshkosh e-mail username and password, agree to the policies, restart their computer and the registration should be completed.

Students can also register their gaming consoles for online game play! Students will need to provide their MAC address for registration; any Google search can provide instructions for MAC address locations on the gaming console. Students can register the device through the website listed above or through the UW-Oshkosh Portal (http://www.portal.housing.uwosh.edu). To add the module, the student should click on settings (upper left corner), choose modules, scroll down and click the green plus arrow by “Device Manager” under ResNet.

Note: MIO does not support an active online connection for gaming consoles.

If students are having any problems with the registration process there is help available! On opening weekend, students will be provided a door hanger when they move in. If this door hanger is put on the outside door handle, this will signify that they need help to the MIO employees that will be walking around the halls helping students. During the school year if students have questions on the registration process, they can call the MIO at (920)424.0863 or email ResNet@mio.uwosh.edu
