These are some of the known issues and their workarounds for connecting departmental and personal Internet of Things (IoT) devices for University of Minnesota IoT Wi-Fi service.
Wireless Printers
Wireless printers broadcast a signal that conflicts with University of Minnesota networks, and can lead to poor service for everyone in the area near the printer. Instead, please connect to printers using a USB cable.
Apple TV
Attempt the connection with UofM-IoT following the instructions in the Register a Personal Device for the Internet of Things (IoT) Wi-Fi Service Self-Help guide. In case that does not work, you can attempt to connect using our enterprise eduroam connection by using Apple Configurator (link is an archived Apple article).
- Apple Configurator can set up a profile to add to the Apple TV that will connect to our enterprise connection. Some support may be offered from [email protected] and user discussions are taking place on [email protected].
For University Departments hoping to use an Apple TV in a meeting or conference room, send a message to [email protected] for assistance.
