Bring Your Own Hotspot

[!warning] Our Wifi is a Complementary Amenity
If you have critical devices that require wifi/internet (devices for payments, presentations, check-in) consider bringing a hotspot. If you are unable to provide us each device’s MAC Address (see below) prior to your event, please do not rely on our Wifi for these critical devices.

There are many choices such as these Verizon Hotspots that can provide internet to multiple devices (data plan required). Modern iPhone or Android phones can also be used as a hotspot (charges to data plan may apply)

How to find iPad’s MAC Address?

You may have opened the Settings on your iPad in search of the MAC address only to come up empty-handed. The thing to know is that it’s not labeled as a “MAC” address, but instead a “Wi-Fi” address.

  1. Open the Settings app on your iPad.
  2. Select General.
  3. Choose About.
  4. Your MAC address is the string of numbers and letters in the Wi-Fi Address field

How to find the MAC address on Android

Finding the Wi-Fi MAC address on an Android phone is relatively simple, at least once you understand the way Android’s menus are organized. The data you’re after is however buried several layers deep in Settings, and depending on your device, certain buttons and icons may be labeled differently. Our guide is based on a OnePlus 8T running Android 12, but things shouldn’t look much different in Android 14.

  • Swipe down from the top of the screen to pull up the Quick Settings bar and tap the gear-shaped Settings icon.
  • Scroll down and go to About [device] > Status. On some phones, “Status” may be replaced with something like “Hardware Information.”
  • Your device’s MAC address will appear next to Wi-Fi MAC address.
