How do I connect to the network?
-

-
Check to make sure your wireless Internet/Wi-Fi software and card are correctly installed and powered on.

What do I need to access the wireless network?
You need a laptop or a PDA equipped with a Wi-Fi compliant 802.11b/g wireless Ethernet card and a standard web browser.
Having difficulty connecting? Here are things to check . . .
-
There may be a few areas where no wireless is available. Move to another area and try again if you think the wireless network (Wi-Fi) is not present.
-
Ensure that your SSID is set to “GIA”. Refer to your Wi-Fi card manufacturer’s instructions on how to set the SSID. If you are using Microsoft Windows XP, the setup process is usually automatic.
-
Ensure that WEP encryption is disabled and authentication is set to “None”.
-
Make sure that the connection is configured for INFRASTRUCTURE mode. (Note: Ad-Hoc mode will not work.)
-
If any changes were made in steps 2 through 4 above, restart your computer and web browser.
