Connecting to HU-Student with a Mac

Connecting to the Harding Network is easier than ever. Now we have one unified network for students across Harding campus.

Note before starting: you will need to download an antivirus to connect to the Harding network if you do not have one already. Despite popular belief, even Macs DO get viruses. We recommend Avira free antivirus.

Connecting with a Mac happens as follows.

Step One:
Click the WiFi symbol on the top right and select HU-Student (if WiFi is off, click to turn it on first!)

Step Two:
Type the password "BlackandGold24"

Step Three:
If it doesn't do this for you, open a web browser (Safari, Chrome, etc.) and navigate to a web page you haven't been to. We recommend baconsizzling.com. If you see bacon, you are good to go. If not, proceed to step four.

Step Four:
Enter your pipeline credentials and click submit

Step Five:
Download the Safeconnect Policy Key for Macintosh.

Step Six:
Run the installer, at the end, feel free to move the installer to the trash

Step Seven:
Type baconsizzling.com into your browser again. At this point you should be connected and good to go! If not, see step eight.

Step Eight:
If you see the following screenshot, then you need to install an antivirus software. We at DormNet recommend Avira free antivirus. This can be done by using a device with internet to get the installer, and using a flash drive to move it to the Mac that needs it (This is a great way to meet roommates and suitemates!). If no such device exists, then feel free to visit us in the Administration Building, room 205, and we can install one here!

Happy Netflixing! ~cough~ I mean studying!
