Summary
The WSUmywifi network is a WSU wireless network available to students living in the Winona campus residence halls to connect your personally-owned devices to the Internet, including phones, game consoles, smart televisions, and streaming media devices (e.g. Roku, Amazon Fire TV Stick, Google Chromecast, smart tvs or devices).

Current Students & New Students living in campus residence halls
When to use WSUmywifi
WSUmywifi, Warrior, and WSU networks are three wireless service set identifiers (SSIDs) that reside on our WSU network. Use WSUmywifi to connect your personally-owned devices to the Internet in WSU residence halls. It is not intended for use with your WSU laptop. Instead, connect your WSU laptop to WSU on macs and WSU-user on pc laptops. Because your WSU laptop and personal devices are on the same underlying network even though they are connected using different SSIDs, you can share files between your laptop and phone (e.g., using AirDrop) and print to WSU networked printers from your phone.
