For residence Connect-IT wifi, follow the same procedures.

Password, Email, and Duo mfa

printing

Wireless printers will not work in residence. You must connect to your personal printer via a USB cable. Alternatively, try our Papercut Printing to print anywhere on campus!

Instructions on printing to any large Toshiba printer on campus: https://www.kings.uwo.ca/its/support/papercut-printing-overview/

 Residence: Game Consoles / Alexa / google home

Devices can only connect to wifi if they are able to enter a username and password. Home assistants, smart lights, game consoles and wireless printers usually do not meet this requirement and will not work on wifi.

If you have a device that has a wired ethernet port and you wish to plug it in for network access, please submit a ticket to ITS (see HELP DESK SUPPORT info on this page).

As part of the ticket, include:

Zoom

You have an official Western Zoom account which you can log into using the Single Sign On (SSO) "westernuniversity".
