The wireless computer network on the downtown campus has now been expanded to cover all public areas of the Isché Library. In addition to the vivariums in the Medical Education Building and the Clinical Sciences Resource Buildings, users can now access network and Internet resources from anywhere on the 3rd, 4th and 5th floors of the Resource Center Building. Users can roam throughout the Library with seamless wireless coverage. This includes all public areas such as carrels, tables, and study rooms.

In order to provide a safe computing environment, wireless users are required to logon to the LSUHSC network with their NT user ID and password. In addition, users of the wireless system are required to utilize a Cisco wireless Ethernet adapter that supports light extensible authentication protocol (LEAP). These adapters are available through Micro Systems Sales for about $125. This combination helps ensure the security and integrity of information.

For further information on using the wireless network on campus, contact your computer support or call Academic Affairs Computer Support at (504) 568-6137.
