While on the Quadrangle, we recommend that you use the internet connection provided by your mobile device through a cellular carrier (Verizon, AT&T, etc.) if applicable. If you need to connect to Emory's wifi network, please review/print the following instructions before coming to campus on Commencement morning.
Connect to EmoryGuest (will appear as a list of available wifi networks through your device's wifi settings). Important information will be presented on consecutive screens. On the last screen, you'll be asked to provide your email address before connecting. You must click through all of the screens and enter your email address on the last page to connect. EmoryGuest is provided for official guests of Emory University who have not been granted a Network ID and password for access to Emory accounts. If you have a Network ID, you should connect to the more robust EmoryUnplugged network.EmoryGuest is provided without encryption, therefore users access this wireless network at their own risk. Each EmoryGuest session expires after four hours, so you may need to reconnect after that time-limit expires.
