The BU_Secure wireless network is intended for use by Brandon University Students, Faculty, and Staff. If you are not any of those, please use any of the other available wireless networks.
To connect to BU_Secure:
1. Locate the BU_Secure Network:
- Ensure your device's Wi-Fi is enabled.
- From the list of available wireless networks, find and select "BU_Secure"
2. Enter Credentials:
- Once selected, you will be prompted to enter your BU Username and Password.
- If your email address is ABC@BrandonU.CA, your username would be "ABC".
