How to connect Ledsreact the college network without WPA-2 Enterprise key?

Colleges and Universities offer often two wireless network options,
  1. a secure EDUROAM connection or
  2. the local open guest network. 
Both options require authentication, either with login credentials for WPA-2 Enterprise encryption (eduroam) or an email address on a web page (guest network).  Many game consoles, e-readers (Kindle, Kobo, Nook) streaming devices (Chromecast, Roku, Firestick) as well as some lab equipment (thermometers, microscopes, refrigeration units, etc) do not support these options.
To allow those devices to connect colleges/universities often offer a wireless self-registration process using the device’s MAC address and the user’s NetID.  Users can often register up to 5 devices and choose who else can see the devices, a requirement for managing printers and media streaming devices. Once the device is registered it just needs to be told to connect to the local guest network.

Adding a new device:

Go to local wireless registration website and login with your NetID credentials. On this page you can manage any devices you have registered, as well as add new devices.

Select Create Device from the Navigation panel on the left. A new page displays with 5 fields for you to complete, 3 of those fields are required. 

MAC Address (Required):  Consists of 12 alpha numeric characters, every Wi-Fi capable device has one.  The MAC Address in on the white label sticker on the bottom of the Ledsreact device.

Device Name (Required): Used to identity the device on the network, created by the user.

AirGroup:  Enable Airgroup allows this device to be viewed by your other devices as well as users you define a who are allowed to share this registered device. You will have the option of adding the NetID for up to 10 users you want to see your device on the network.

Once you check this box you have two additional options: Personal or Shared. This should remain set to Personal!

Shared With:  Enter up to 10 NetIDs, separated by commas, for users you want to share this device with. If this device is never going to be shared, don’t enable.

Notes:  Not required, use to note any specifics you want to record.

Terms of Use (Required): This indicates you have read and agree to abide by the College/University acceptable use guidelines.
