Connecting to Guest Wi-Fi
Students and staff can connect personally owned devices, such as phones, tablets and laptops, to the district’s Guest Wi-Fi network. Devices must first be enrolled using a BISD network (Windows) account.
Before connecting a personal device, please review the district’s technology policies and procedures and the Bring Your Own Device guidelines.
How to Connect
Connect to BISD-GUEST-WIFI
Open your device’s Wi-Fi settings and select the BISD-GUEST-WIFI network.
Open the sign-in portal
Your device should be redirected to a sign-in page. Under Staff and Students (BISD), select Log In.
Log in with your BISD Windows account
Use the same BISD username and password you use to log in to a district Windows computer. Don’t include @bisd303.org or @frogrock.org.
Wait to connect
It takes about a minute, and then you’re connected.
Security note: The Guest Wi-Fi network is not encrypted. Only enter personal or confidential information on secure websites (addresses that begin with https).
