Configure Your Ethernet Connection
- Go to System > Administration > Networking. The Network settings window will open.
- In the Network settings window, in the Connections tab:
- Select Ethernet connection and click Activate.
- Make sure no other connections (i.e., Wireless or Modem) are activated. If there are active connections other than Ethernet, select the active connection and click Deactivate.
Test your Connection
- Open an Internet browser to test your connection (e.g., Mozilla Firefox). Note: If you are using a jack that is part of the Network Registration system (NetReg), you will need to register your computer before you can access the campus network.
- After you launch your browser, enter a URL. If you are using a NetReg jack, you will automatically be redirected to the NetReg Web site. The NetReg site can be found at:http://netreg.oit.umass.edu/.
