Overview

The Texas A&M Internet of Things (IoT) wireless network (TAMU_IoT) provides internet access to devices that could not connect to TAMU_WiFi in the past (Alexa, wireless printers, etc.), while allowing the university to link devices to a campus member’s account, ensuring the network stays safe.

Devices must be registered in the TAMU IoT portal before they can connect to the TAMU_IoT network. The TAMU_IoT network is only available in select locations around campus.

Getting Started

Campus members can connect a total of five devices to the TAMU_IoT network.

  1. Make sure you’re on campus and connected to TAMU_WiFi.
  2. Log in to u.tamu.edu/IoT with your NetID and password.
  3. Register up to five devices (using the MAC address).
  4. Connect your smart device to TAMU_IoT!
