Use your laptop across campus! Configure your own laptop for wireless on MCC's campus and in just a few minutes you are ready to access your email, Blackboard and other Internet functions.
Wireless is available throughout the MCC main campus and at our satellite locations. Remember that distance from the router and differences in laptop computers and other devices determine your signal strength.
If you are having difficulty using MCC's wireless network contact the Help Desk 1208 Curtice-Mott Complex or call (810) 767-4357.
Mott Community College (MCC) operates a campus wide wireless network. Guest access is provided free of charge through "MOTTGuest" wifi, but does require you to authenticate with either a valid email or facebook account. Please note that all these directions can be found by connecting to the Mott wireless network and following the onscreen directions.
Using an existing Facebook account to authenticate is the easiest and quickest method to use the Mott wireless network as a guest.
Step 1:
On your wireless device connect to the wireless network named "MottGuest" (*not*
Mott1X)
Most modern operating systems will at this point bring up the "login page", if
your device doesn’t please open a web browser on your device and attempt to go to
any website, you will be redirected to the captive portal page.
Step 2:
Scroll down toward the bottom of the page and click on the link called "Login
with Facebook account"
Step 3:
Enter the requested information, click "log in" and you are all set until midnight
the same day.
If you would rather not use your facebook account or don’t have a facebook account and you want to use the Mott wireless account as a guest you can use a valid email account. This process involves providing Mott with a working email address, it must be a real and functioning email account as you will be required to validate it by clicking on a link sent to that email address, you will have 10 minutes of access to complete this process.
