Connecting to Network

Once you establish your connection, you may be redirected to the Wireless Network Authentication Page to log in. Click on Guest Access and you should be able to go to any webpage.

Note: Wireless access has restrictions on speed and what you can do beyond normal web traffic. This may affect your ability to use email clients or instant messaging programs. We suggest using web-based versions of these programs such as AIM Express in place of AOL Instant Messenger. If programs or specific websites don’t work, you may need to use a wired connection.
