Wireless Access for Guests (Public)

Guest networks offer short-term access for non-WVU individuals with a legitimate need for wireless connectivity while on campus, such as visiting parents, guest lecturers and vendors.

Guest access within residence hall rooms is provided through Boldyn (formerly Apogee). Guests and visitors can visit their Support Portal on their device, click Guests and Visitors, and follow the instructions to connect.

View support information on the Support Portal home page. If you still need assistance, Boldyn provides 24/7 customer support at (866) 502-4590 or by live chat.
