Connecting to the University Network and the Internet
The Wireless Network
You can connect your computer to the Internet using a wireless connection on campus. The available wireless network is called "QFLink".
Wireless networking is available throughout Education City, including open spaces outside of the buildings. Wireless networking is also available in the dorms.
When you turn your on computer, the wireless adapter should automatically connect to the QFLink network. Then you should open your web browser and you will be automatically directed to the QFLink home page. Log in as a guest user using your Georgetown University e-mail address.
Once you are connected to the wireless network, you will need to log on to the VPN. You must log into the VPN in order to:
- Access library databases and research resources
- Print to any networked printers
For PCs: an 802.11b-compatible wireless card.
For Macs: an AirPort or 802.11b-compatible wireless card
VPN Client
For greater security, you will log on to the university's network (and the Internet) using a VPN connection. All University-issued computers will have the VPN client installed and configured.
You will use a VPN connection with both the wireless and wired networks. If the computer you are using does not have VPN software, contact the OIT Support Office.
