Tips and troubleshooting:

  • For the best experience, please disable MAC randomization on your device if applicable. Please review the articles with instructions on how to do this here for Android and iOS devices.

    To prevent the need to frequently re-register on the UVU network, turn off MAC Address Randomization for the UVU networks. MAC Address Randomization was introduced to increase user privacy on public networks, but at the cost of having to register each time you use a new public network. By disabling MAC Address Randomization, you will remain logged on to the UVU network after registering your device.

  • If you see you the following error:

    nsapp-wireless.ad.uvu.edu says
    Failed to detect a change in your network settings. Please disable and re-enable your wireless.

    Turn your WiFi off for one minute, then turn it back on and try to go to any website.

  • If you are experiencing issues and cannot resolve them with the information provided on this page, please contact the Service Desk at 801-863-8888 or visit the following link:
