Wireless access for visitors

WFUguest

WFUguest is an open wireless network for our campus guests who want quick and easy access to the Internet. WFUguest does not require a sponsor or a password. This option is not intended for use by our faculty, staff, and students. 

Note that WFUguest is not available in the following locations:

• LJVM Coliseum
• Bridger Field House
• Deacon Tower (BB&T Field)
• Tennis Center
• Brookstown Inn

In most cases, WFUguest should be adequate for campus visitors. WFUguest is comparable to what is commonly available at hotels, airports and coffee shops.  If WFUguest is not available, Wake Forest students, faculty and staff may create a WFUmydevices wireless network account for any individual visiting the University that requires access to on-campus resources.

• WFU students can create accounts for up to 7 days
• WFU Faculty and staff can create accounts for up to 180 days
