How to Connect to University Wi-Fi on a Mac

Modified on: Thu, 1 Feb 2024 8:53 AM

Step 1 – Open your Wi-Fi settings  

The first thing you’ll want to do is go into your Wi-Fi settings by clicking the Wi-Fi icon at the top right of your screen.


Step 2 – Connect to PioneerNet

Click on “PioneerNet”  to connect to our Wi-Fi.


Step 3 – Log in

In order to use our Wi-Fi, you’ll need to log in using your University account information. It’ll ask you for a username and password, which should be the same as what you use to log into University computers and your email without the @pointpark.edu.



Step 4 – Verify the certificate

Next, you should get a window that pops up and looks a little something like this:

 


All you need to do is click the “Continue” button. 


Step 5 – Log in again

After clicking the "Continue" button, you should get a window that asks you to log in again:


This is just to let your computer know that you've verified the certificate and that you trust us. Your username should be automatically entered, so you just need to enter your University password and click the "Update Settings" button. 


Step 6 – Enjoy

That’s it! You should now see that your computer is connected to our “PioneerNet” Wi-Fi network. 

If you still need assistance, feel free to submit a ticket by heading here, emailing us a helpdesk@pointpark.edu, or by calling us at 412-392-3494.
