Faculty and staff (not affiliates or students) can sponsor and create a temporary wireless account for university guests/visitors through these steps:
- Open a browser to the Guest Access Management page. (Note: This site can only be accessed from on campus).
- Log in with your eID and password.
- Insert the Name of the Guest requiring the wireless access.
- If the request is for an Event, the Event name can be used in replace of a single name.
- Insert an email address where the Guest will receive the instructions on how to log into JMU-Visitors.
- A phone number is not required unless you wish to have a text message of the registration sent to you. If you desire a text (sms) message, ensure that the full number including the area code is provided.
- International numbers will not receive the automated text message.
- The Guest's carrier will also be required if using the text option.
- Select how long the Guest will require access to JMU-Visitors. The minimum is one (1) day to two (2) weeks.
- A Self-assigned Password will be created automatically. This will be emailed to the guest once the request has been submitted.
- Ensure that the Send Email option is checked and if required click the Send Text option.
- Select the Agreement option.
- Click Create.
Note: If a request is needed for a specific date or date-range that the form does not allow, please contact the JMU IT Help Desk at 540-568-3555 to gather the additional information.
