Faculty and staff (not students) have the ability to authorize guest access to the uog-guest wifi network. The user may be able to connect with “eduroam”, if that fails, these instructions still apply.
DO NOT USE the “Guest Wireless Access Form” available CCS's website, the form will submit, but this results in an email telling you to use the following process.
Wifi self registration process:
Have the visitor connect to the “uog-guest” wifi network on their device
Once connected, the
OS should raise a welcome window; the visitor must click on the “Register” link at the top of the page (they will need to scroll up)
A page called “Guest Registration” should appear with a form that the visitor must fill out. For the “Sponson Email”, visually verify that the visitor has correctly filled out your email address (not mis-typed @uoguelph.ca, etc). You must receive the email from the form to authorize access, only Staff or Faculty member, you won't be able to authorize access.

In the “Guest Management” page, click the visitor's name then scroll down and click the green “approve” button on the bottom of the page. The user's internet access should work within a few moments.
If the user has additional devices to connect, they can connect the device to “uog-guest”, but instead click the link at the bottom of the “Register” form for additional devices.
