SSID: Stellar 2.4 or Stellar 5

  1. Make sure you've selected the right network name (SSID).

Unique SSID (Landmark on Grand River, Newman Lofts, CRMC Houses)

  3. Check My Services → Wi-Fi to manage your devices.
  4. If connected but not working, forget the network and reconnect.

Router issues

  1. Unplug the power for 60 seconds, then plug it back in.
  2. Reset to defaults and run the setup wizard while disconnected.
  3. Make sure your ethernet cable is plugged into the right port (Internet/WAN/Modem).
  4. Don't use a cable modem/router combo device with STELLAR service.

Computer/laptop issues

Windows: Network Settings → Manage Wi-Fi Settings → Manage Known Networks, select the network, click Forget, then reconnect.

Mac: Select the Wi-Fi symbol → Open Network Preferences → Wi-Fi → Advanced, select the network, click the minus sign, then click OK.

Troubleshooting

Wireless: First verify your connection works over a direct wall (wired) connection, then enable Wi-Fi and connect to your router's network. If wired works but wireless doesn't, contact support.

Windows 10/8/7/Vista: Press Start+R, type ncpa.cpl, right-click your local area connection → Properties. Verify "Client for Microsoft Networks" and "Internet Protocol Version 4" are checked (uncheck IPv6 if present). Double-click IPv4, ensure IP and DNS are set to automatic, click OK, then reboot.

macOS: Finder → Applications → System Preferences → Network → Ethernet Connection, make sure it's configured for DHCP, then click Apply.
