Is your department hosting campus guests who need wireless access for an extended time (e.g., summer camp or weekend conferences)? If so, request a sponsored-account so your guests can access the 国产AV-WiFi and/or 国产AV-IOT networks for the duration of the sponsored event.

Sponsored-Account Creation

Go to , click “Service Catalog” (the middle box on the homepage), and type “Sponsored Guest WiFi Access.” Then, click on “Network Services.”
    1. Once in the form, select “Request Sponsored Guest WiFi Access” for the Service, and you'll see the request form populate.
    2. Filling out the request’s information, you’ll need to simply follow the instructions on the form.

      The request for Sponsored Guest WiFi Access is included inside of our  request form, so users will need to do the following to access it:

    • We will need a signed copy of our Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) from each guest BEFORE we’re able to create their account.
      • You can submit this by emailing the form to security@valdosta.edu, bringing it to the I.T. Helpdesk on the 2nd floor of Odum Library, or by uploading the form directly to the TSP request.
    • Often, the Request for Sponsored Guest WiFi Access is filled out for our summer camps to give participants WiFi access, and in many cases, these participants are minors. We are unable to accept an AUP signed by a minor, so we will instead need their sponsor (usually the camp counselor) to sign on their behalf.

Sponsored Guest

Upon approval, you will receive an email from 'noreply@valdosta.edu' that contains your guest login credentials (username and password).
