Q: How do I get connected to the ASU Wireless Network?

A: ASU students should connect to the SSID/Wireless Network name “Student” or “myasu”. When connecting to the “Student” network each student must enter their PSK to connect. In “myasu” locations, you will continue to use “Hornetsnation” as your password. 

Q: How do I add or remove devices?

A: If at any time you have a device connected and would like to connect a different device. You must choose to disconnect the currently connected device from the network to connect a new device.

Q: What is a PSK?

A: A PSK stands for Pre-Shared Key. This is your password to access the ASU “Student” wireless network. Your PSK is defined by the following schema: the first 4 letters of your last name CAPITALIZED + the last 5 digits of your social security number. Here’s an example of the PSK schema:

Name - John Smith          SSN - 123-41-2345        John’s PSK would be: SMIT12345
