Laptops
You may use your laptop to connect directly to our network. Our network
uses
DHCP to provide a dynamic IP address and routing information
to your system.
Wired connection
There are ports set aside and labeled on the 4th floor where you
can plug in an ethernet cable connected to your laptop. Please do
not unplug any computer in the lab, the machines are monitored,
updated and used remotely, a network connection is necessary for
them to operate correctly.
Wireless Connection
Much of Ryerson, including the 4th floor, is served by a wireless network.
Any wireless card that supports the 802.11b protocol should work on the
University's wireless network. There is an authentication system that
requires a
