Connecting to APU-MYDEVICES
print icon

This network will provide internet services to devices pre-registered at mydevices.apu.edu (i.e. gaming systems and televisions). The mydevices.apu.edu portal is only available on campus. The use of Chrome or Firefox browsers is recommended for the portal.

 

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

 

Pre-registering for this network varies on the device and where the device displays it's Media Access Control (MAC) address. A MAC address is made up of 12 characters, usually separated by colons, hyphens, or without any separators, like this:

 

      00:1A:2B:3C:4D:5E   or   00-1A-2B-3C-4D-5E   or   001A2B3C4D5E

 

This is usually located in the network settings of the device. Device-specific instructions for finding your MAC address are available in step 4 of this article.
