This article provides a brief list of acceptable and non-acceptable devices for the Reznet-IoT network. If you are unable to connect to the 

Reznet network with your device, it is because it does not support a wireless security method called WPA2-Enterprise. The Reznet-IoT 

network supports certain devices without WPA2-Enterprise, please read below for more details.


  • If you are having issues with using ethernet ports, you can follow the instructions for Netreg.
