Here are just a few things to get you started
- ID Card – to activate printing, go to any copy machine on campus and scan your ID card. The system will automatically return a user error message and then prompt you to put in your credentials manually. Click the user name on the copier and enter in your full NEIT email address and your current password. This is the only time you will need to do this. Once registered you will scan your ID on any copier on any campus and release your print jobs.
- Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) – MFA has been enabled for all NEIT users. Follow the steps provided in this link https://dots.neit.edu/MFA or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaSaq99c9n8
- Registering your devices on network – New England Institute of Technology has instituted a network security system, Network Sentry, to provide a more secure computing environment for our students, faculty, and staff. The system registers all wired and wireless devices before they are allowed to connect to our network. Click https://dots.neit.edu/connecting-to-the-network for more information.

To setup your voice mail simply press the voice mail button and enter in your ID which is your phone extension followed by the # sign. Your pin is 846800 followed by the # sign. At this time the system will prompt you to change it to a 6-digit number. The system will guide you through the rest of the setup. This number will show as the Caller ID when you dial from your desk phone which allows the caller to dial you back directly without going through the operator. Your direct dial number is : xxx-xxx-xxxx Not all employees have Direct Dial numbers so if you don’t see a number then you do not have one.
