Windows Network Set Up

1. Plug the Ethernet Cable into the RJ45 network wall jack (the jack marked 'data' or the blue-colored wall jack) and the other end into your computer (usually on the back and wider then a phone jack).
2. Turn your computer on. If there are lights on your Ethernet card, they should go on with either one blinking and one solid or, if there is only one, it could be either blinking or solid. If there is a light and it doesn't go on when your computer is on, you might have a wiring problem or bad ethernet cable. Email helpdesk@hampshire.edu for assistance.
3. At this point, your computer should automatically connect properly to the Hampshire College network. The first time you open a web browser (Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer), you will be redirected to a NetReg page. Enter your username and password, then wait a few minutes. After registration is complete, you will be able to navigate to any web page.

If your computer does not connect to the network, contact helpdesk@hampshire.edu for assistance
