When you arrive on campus, your dorm room is equipped with two live network ports. One port is for your phone, one is for a computer. If both you and your roommate would like to connect to the dorm connection, there is a port on the back of the phone for this purpose. Click the right arrow on the interactive content below to see the location of this port.

If you are in a room with three students (commonly known as a “triple), Technology Services will provide an ethernet switch to ensure everyone can connect. Please click through the demonstration to learn how to set this up. It’s quick and easy!

Supplies

• 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch
• AC-DC Adapter Cord
• 350 mHz Cat5 Patch Cable (Ethernet Cable)

Instructions
