Internet Access

We have wireless access all across campus. To connect, search for available wireless networks and choose “CU-students”. This network is not locked, so you can attach without a key. Windows XP will usually display a small window in the lower right of the screen telling you that wireless networks have been detected. If you are using Microsoft Vista or a Mac, consult the documentation that came with your system for how to connect to a wireless network.

If you are in the residence halls, each of the rooms has a wired internet connection as well. You’ll need a “CAT 5”, “CAT 5e” or “CAT 6” network cable to attach to it. These are readily available at our bookstore or almost any store with an office supplies section (Wal-Mart, Target, and of course OfficeMax).
