This was the case at my university. In order to use the dorm network, you had to download a software package that validated your setup. It would then add your computer (I assume MAC) to an allow-list.

In order to deal with it, I had to create a subnet with a router, use an old laptop to do the verification, and then the whole subnet was added to the allow-list.
