Roam Free with Your Laptop: Tap into Wireless Internet at the UO

Current wireless coverage will eventually expand to all libraries on campus and the first and second floors of Grayson Hall

Did you know you can get an 11 Mbs. network card for your laptop that will give you fast wireless Internet access from several campus locations? If you'd like to try out wireless technology, you can borrow one of these cards from the CC-EMU Lab in Room 22 EMU. While faculty, students, and staff may borrow a card at no charge, a $20 refundable deposit is required.

Wireless coverage areas are currently limited to most public areas of the ERB Memorial Union, the Willamette Atrium, and the Computing Center. However, by fall of 2001, wireless coverage will be expanded to include at least all libraries on campus (Knight, Math, Science, AAA, and Law) as well as the first and second floors of Grayson Hall. Other areas of campus may be added as funding and time allows.

Registration required. All wireless users must register their wireless cards prior to use via the web page at http://ns.uoregon.edu/ using the IP Address Request link. Cards borrowed from the EMU computer lab are already registered.
