Residence Hall IPTV – Connecting your Device

Overview

Texas A&M offers both cable TV and internet protocol TV (IPTV) service in most residence halls. IPTV is TV programming provided via the Internet instead of traditional coaxial cable. Please ensure the TV you bring to campus can tune digital channels using a coaxial cable or can connect to an internet network if you are planning to use the IPTV service.

  • Instructions for connecting to IPTV are available below.
  • Instructions for connecting to Cable TV are available here.

Connecting to IPTV

IPTV can be used on any device (laptops, tablets, smartphones, and smart TV sets) as long as you are on campus and connected to the university wired or wireless network, (ResNet or TAMU WiFi). You will need to download an app or use a supported browser to access IPTV on your device.

To connect your streaming device to the TAMU Internet of Things, please view our documentation in our knowledge base. You will need to know your device's MAC address to register the device on the TAMU_IoT network.
