Connecting Gaming Devices / Smart TVs to WiFi (PSK)

The PSK network provides internet service to gaming, streaming and media devices that do not support enterprise encrypted networks like Eduroam.

To connect a device to PSK, first select UA-WPA-PSK as the network from your device. You will then be prompted for a password. To obtain the password, visit the Tech Tab on myBama. We store this password on the Tech Tab of myBama so that only UA community members can utilize the network.

When connecting to PSK the network will automatically detect the device type. If you are prompted with a web page requesting a second login, enter your myBama username and password. After successful authentication, you will see a green checkbox indicating the successful connection. If your device does not connect, you may need to manually register your device with its MAC address.

To register your device, please visit http://wireless-enrollment.ua.edu. If you are unable to connect after registering your device, please contact the IT Service Desk at 205-348-5555 with your IP address and device type.
