The first thing to do when your
dial-up connection is not working is to verify that
your password works in one of the computer labs on
campus. If not, go to the computer lab in the Tomlinson
Library to have it re-set. Bring a photo i.d. from
7:30 AM until 4:30 PM.
To obtain assistance with your
dial-up connection, call the Tomlinson Library Computer
lab at
248-1885
