Wireless Service @ the Library

The Library now offers wireless Internet access on all floors open to the public. Patrons who own portable computer devices with wireless capability can use their own software inside the library.  Though we cannot provide individual instruction or advice on how to configure your computer to utilize wireless access, we do have a handout available in the library for more information.

Technical Requirements:

• Wireless capable devices must conform to the 802.11b or 802.11g standard.

• Wireless capable devices should automatically obtain an IP address (DHCP, bootP, etc.)

• Patrons must know how to set up a network or wireless profile using the software on their devices.

• If signal strength is not good, patrons should move about the library to locate a stronger or better quality signal.

• Some wireless capable devices have a physical switch which must be turned on in order to connect to wireless networks.

How to get connected:

• Select one of our wireless access points:

  ACPLML on the 1st floor

  ACPLMLDWN on the 2nd floor

   

• Click "Connect" on the wireless homepage

Please note:

By using wireless technology, it is possible for personal information to be compromised while being transmitted.  The library will not accept responsibility for any loss or damages and, as such, encourages its patrons to utilize secure services when accessing resources in a wireless environment.
