Cable TV service is not provided in the WWU residence halls.

These are TV’s or streaming devices that are connected to the internet via and ethernet cable or wifi and provide access to streaming services such as Hulu or Netflix.  These can include Smart TV’s, Roku’s, Apple TV’s, game consoles, etc.

Devices such as Smart TV’s and streaming devices that do not have browsers will be able to connect to the ResTek-alt network once the MAC address of the device is registered.  For most devices the MAC address can be found in the device settings:

  1. Find your MAC Address
    • The simplest way to locate the MAC address for most devices is to go look at our page on How to Find Your Mac Address.
    • If your device was not listed or you are still having difficulties finding your Mac Address, we recommend Googling “How to find MAC address on (insert device name here)”. Usually If you google for devices such as Smart TVs and Rokus, you can find the MAC address in the settings of the device.
    • For other web-enabled devices, the MAC address can usually be located on the underside of your device or in the user manual. If you have problems locating your device’s MAC address, please consult your manufacturer’s website or contact their customer support center.
