Wired (Ethernet): Registering your Device (especially for campus housing)

Most dorm rooms have 1 active port. If you need a new or different port activated, you can request it: Network Request.

Instructions

1. You’ll need your MAC address. If you are unsure on how to find your MAC address: Finding your Device's MAC Address
   NOTE: If you use an adapter/dongle to connect your computer to the ethernet, you will also have to register your adapter's MAC address.

2. On a device that is already connected to the internet (perhaps using CarletonGuests) go to go.carleton.edu/network and log in with your Carleton credentials

3. Select Create Device

4. Name your device something that you’ll recognize and enter your device's MAC address

5. Click Create Device at the bottom to finish set up

Renewing your Device's Registration

Registration for the device lasts for one year. You can renew the device's registration at any time by going to go.carleton.edu/network (link opens in new tab), clicking on your device's name, clicking Edit, and then clicking Update Device. This will renew the registration for another year.
