Here you will find instructions on setting up your wireless adapter using the built-in software in the Windows and Mac operating systems.

All three floors of the UHMC Library are wireless access points.

Note: We do not support third party wireless configuration wizards due to the amount of various software applications that are available. Consult the documentation that came with your wireless card to learn how to turn this software off.
