In
order to connect to the internet from your dorm room, you must
configure
your web browser to use the proxy server. The proxy server
will make connections to the internet on your behalf. You must
use your domain account in order to successfully connect to the
internet. This will not affect access to Hampton University's
online resources (HUnet, Banner, etc.).
To
connect to the campus network, you must have an IBM compatible
PC or laptop running Windows 95/98 or NT, and a 3COMM 10/100 Network
Interface Card (NIC card). You will also have access to the internet
in the Academic Technology Mall during Operating hours. For information
on installations and prices for NIC cards, go to Service Cost.
