2018 WELS MN District Convention Tech Information

These instructions will help you use the technology services available on campus during the 2018 WELS Minnesota District Convention being held at Martin Luther College in New Ulm, MN from June 12-14, 2018.

Guest wireless access is available in all public areas, including the gymnasium, classroom buildings, and dorm lobbies (but not dorm rooms even though we are working on this deployment right now). To connect, you will want to follow these steps:

• Choose the MLC Guest WLAN as the wireless network for your device.
• Open a web browser (if your device has not already) and attempt to navigate to a site.
• You should be taken to MLC's registration server (lovingly called Reggie). Scroll to the bottom and accept the acceptable use policy.
• Choose Guest User and use sprinter (all lowercase) as the passcode when prompted. Please also include your full name where prompted. Continue forward.

You should now have access to the MLC Guest WLAN for the next 24 hours. If you have an active MLC Account, please use that login option instead to received 7 days of access.

For those staying in the dorms, you can also have guest network access while on campus. Follow these steps to register your device while plugged into one of the wired Ethernet jacks in your dorm room:

• Connect your device to one of the wired Ethernet jacks provided in your room. You might need to hunt for it, and you will need a Ethernet cable (which can be purchased from Walmart if you do not have one).
• Open a web browser (if your device has not already) and attempt to navigate to a site.
• You should be taken to MLC's registration server (lovingly called Reggie). Scroll to the bottom and accept the acceptable use policy.
• Choose Guest User and use sprinter (all lowercase) as the passcode when prompted. Please also include your full name where prompted. Continue forward.

You will need to be patient as the network switches might need to switch you to the proper network in order to do this. If you are having some issues, please restart your machine and attempt to register again.

If you are having issues, please contact MLC Network Services at (507) 233-9100, visit us on the 2nd floor of the WCC, or email us at support@mlc-wels.edu.
