Need to update your password on your mobile device? Review the steps below.
Every time you change your Brookdale NetID password, you should update that password (for email and wireless) on all your mobile devices as soon as possible.
IMPORTANT: When you change your Brookdale password, be sure to update it on all devices (mobile phones, laptops, tablets, etc.) that are set to automatically connect to Brookdale services, such as Wi-Fi or email. If you don’t, those devices will keep trying to connect using the old password, resulting in multiple failed login attempts. That can lock your account, cutting off your access to important systems until it’s manually reset.
As soon as you change your password, update it on:
- Wi-Fi settings
- Email apps (Outlook, Apple Mail, etc.)
- Restart the devices after updating, if needed
