- If a device is a "Smart" device (excluding smart TVs) it will most likely NOT work on Titan WiFi (e.g. fans, speakers, lights, outlets, etc.), but may work on Titan WiFi Guest (not secure, not supported by UWO IT)
- Roku Smart TVs that do not have an ethernet port, will not receive an internet connection on campus.
