Yale network device registration for students


Yale requires devices connecting to the University network to be registered to associate the device with a member of the Yale community.   Students need to register devices yearly.  Faculty and Staff needing a device connected to the network should contact their IT Support Provider to ensure their device is given a permanent registration.

Important Points:

Register your device

  1. Determine the hardware or MAC address for each connection on your computer or device. There is usually one for wireless and a separate one for a wired connection.
  2. From a computer that has Internet connectivity, visit the NetReg website and register your device following the onscreen instructions. 
  3. You will be able to connect to the network a few minutes after the registration process is complete.
