​Unlock Your Account

Why is my account locked?

Your account will lock in one of a few cases.

• You enter your password incorrectly 3 or more times.
• You changed your password recently but did not update the password on other devices you use to access the campus Wi-Fi, like your phone, tablet, or laptop.

First, forget the network on all your devices

Your laptop, your phone, your tablet, all need to forget the network, if you have connected them to the Wi-Fi.  They store your old password, which you will update once you have changed your password.
