NOTE: You will need to have your MSU NetID username and password.
1. Connect the Cat 5 Ethernet
cable between the Network Card on your computer and the data jack in
the wall.
NOTE: There
are usually 2 BLACK data ports on the box except in the Village,
where the data port is always the
BOTTOM one. If you live in a triple room plug in the Ethernet cable
into the Ethernet splitter. For more information refer to the Triple
Rooms page. Most
network cards have two lights -- one will remain solid when connected
(often labeled
"link") and the other will flash when data is transmitted or
received (often labeled "data").
2. Attempt connecting to
the Internet by starting your browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer
or other). You will be redirected to the Montclair State University
Network Registration Server page where you will begin your registration
process. Please follow the onscreen instructions carefully. You must complete
the Montclair State University Network Registration process to have
access to the Internet.
If you experience any problems with the Network
Registration process call the Computer Helpdesk at x7971 for assistance.
