Adding your Device to Lynn_Open

This article describe instructions to add Devices to the Lynn_Open SSID used for Gaming Consoles, Smart TV’s Apple TV’s, Roku's etc.

This Lynn_Open SSID is used for Gaming Consoles, Smart TV’s Apple TV’s, Roku's etc. that do not support the 802.1x protocol. Simply put, your device does not support the entering of your Lynn University username and password and only supports WEP or WPA/WPA2 security standards. We do not recommend that any student uses this SSID for anything other gaming and television as it is not secure. Lynn_Open is a hidden wireless network and will not be able to be chosen from the drop down of available networks on your device

Please do not attempt to connect to the Lynn_Open wireless network prior to registering it on ise.lynn.edu as you may be locked out. A lockout means that you are unable to connect to the network for 30 minutes and any subsequent attempts within this time frame will simply reset the timer.
