Attention ResNet Students
The User Agreement has been updated. In order to continue using the wired ResNet, you will need to review the updated agreement and re-register your wired devices.
If you still see your device listed in your MyResNet portal, but unable to connect to the network, you will need to delete the registration and re-register.
If you are unable to access the ResNet website from your wired device, you can access the site via a mobile or wireless device (phone, tablet, laptop…).
For additional assistance, please contact the UCF IT Support Center by phone at 407-823-5117 or by email at itsupport@ucf.edu
