This article explains what Wi-Fi networks exist within HSE district buildings, what their individual roles are, and how to connect to them.

 Instructions

HSE Schools operates multiple wireless internet networks that each exist for a specific purpose. There are two that staff, students, and guests will use:

  1. HSE-CORP

  2. HSE-GUEST

HSE-CORP

This network is likely the most familiar--it is for all district teachers, students, and staff to be able to connect to the internet using their district-issued credentials. It will work for any staff laptop or student iPad, as well as many personal devices.

When logging into HSE-CORP, please use your HSE ‘username' only. This means the first part of your email address, stopping before the ‘at’ sign (@). Then use your usual HSE district password.

HSE-GUEST

This network exists primarily for those visiting our buildings on a temporary basis to access the internet, and contains some security restrictions. Staff and students should never connect to this network under normal circumstances. Staff members or students who cannot connect to HSE-CORP because of a problem with their account should work with building techs to resolve the account issue--do not use HSE-GUEST as a substitute.

HSE-GUEST may operate partially when used by students and staff, but is not advised as it will not allow the usual level of access staff and students are used to within our district. Perhaps more importantly, it can cause connectivity issues later on for staff and students, even when using the recommended HSE-CORP and HSE-MACBOOK networks. Please ‘forget’ this wireless network in your device settings if it has been connected to in the past.
