Attaching the Laptop to the Network

Welcome to AirFox, Marist's campus-wide wireless network.

Upon powering up the laptop the following screen will appear (this may take a minute as the Cisco VPN program starts). If patron does not require internet access click Cancel.

The patron will need to enter their K/J account and password, then click OK.

Once the K/J account has been successfully entered by the patron the following screen will appear.

Click Continue and the patron will now be connected to the network.

If a patron becomes disconnected from the wireless network they would need to double click on the VPN Client icon on the desktop (gold lock) and follow the steps above.

Click Connect and follow the steps above to login.
