Option 1 - Recommended

Follow the Do-It-Yourself walkthrough guide

Option 2

Drop-off your computer at the Computer Assistance Center for free setup. Drop-off hours are available on the SPC home page.

Option 3

Use the "cu-unsecure" wireless connection. Note: This should be an option of last resort. This option has the normal security risks of an unencrypted wifi connection. Encryption relies on website https access.
