Wireless Service in the Library

	The Scott LRC lends wireless-equipped Dell laptops. Learn more!

Jeff-IT has placed wireless hardware (access points) in the Barringer, Orlowitz, and Martin residence halls, the first two floors in Jefferson Alumni Hall, and all four floors of Scott Memorial Library. Wireless accounts are required for access, but are free to Jeffersonians. Wireless accounts are managed by Jeff-IT, at their Customer Support Center, 3rd Floor, Edison Building.

Currently, this wireless service offers access to the Internet and other open applications such as JeffShare, JeffCal and JeffMail. Instant messaging (AIM, ICQ, MSN Instant Messenger), Telnet, SSH and FTP are also supported. Applications on the secure University network are not accessible; the wireless network is part of the separate Academic & Research Network (ARN).

How Can I Use It? Two Easy Steps

Step One - Buy the right network card:

• Jeff-IT provides a list of compatible cards on its Student IT Support site in Pulse.
• The TJU bookstore has a stock of these cards (contact them at 215-955-7922), but you may buy them from other sources, as well.

Step Two - Configure your PC

• All students are pre-registered for wireless access, using your Campus Key, but your computer needs to be configured. Jeff-IT provides instructions to help you configure your own PC, or
• You may make an appointment for a Jeff-IT technician to do the configuration for you.
• To make an appointment, please call 215-503-7600. You will need to take your PC to the Jeff-IT Computer Support Center on the third floor of the Edison Building to have a technician configure your PC for you.
