Overview
In residence halls, internet-ready devices like smart TVs or other multimedia equipment must be connected to the ecu-wifi network or the wired network, not eduroam. You can register up to two internet-ready devices by following these instructions to avoid daily authentication.
Please Note: If the mydevices.ecu.edu link does not work, log in to ECU's virtual private network (VPN), remoteaccess.ecu.edu to see if this solves the problem. See these step-by-step vpn guides. Otherwise, call the IT Service Desk at 252-328-9866 or walk in to your nearest Pirate Techs location.
Add a New Device
Step 1
Open a browser and navigate to https://mydevices.ecu.edu. Log in, read the Acceptable Use Policy and click Accept.
The Manage Devices screen opens.
Step 2
Click the Add button on the Manage Devices screen and complete the registration form:
- Enter a name for your device (no special characters).
- Enter the device's MAC Address. This number is usually found near the device's serial number. It consists of 6 alphanumeric number pairs separated by colons such as AA:BB:CC:11:22:33 Wireless MAC or Wi-Fi address. You can also find the MAC address within your system settings. See the Related Articles section on this page for a link to more information on how to locate your MAC address.

- Click Submit.
The Manage Devices screen re-opens. You will see the new device listed in the manage devices list. You will also see the statement, Pending, and this is normal.
