Connecting Media or Gaming Devices in ResNet

You must register your personal computer, router, gaming or media device before connecting to ResNet.

Registering Media or Gaming Devices Plugged Directly Into the Wall

If you are using a router, register the router as a computer and then connect the gaming console or media device to it without registering the gaming console or media device. Only follow these steps if you intend to connect your gaming console or media device directly to the Ethernet port on the wall.
