Ok quick question. If i am using my works access codes to use their WiFi, can they see that it is me using it? I know they can see that a computer is accessing, but can they see my name?
 
They will know it's an Apple product via the wifi mac address if they monitor with some smart network software. At the router/switch they can port sniff the traffic and see what you are looking at. So yes if there's something with your name in it, they will know it's you.
