Please make sure your computer is on and you are ready to try a few suggestions that may be given over the phone when you call. If you are dialing in from a residence room use these phone numbers. For V.90 56Kbps modems use 8863-2222 . For modems 33.6Kbps or slower use 863-7777 . A computer network is defined as two or more computers connected together using network cards and cables to communicate with and share resources with each other.
Resources can be printers and hard drives to name a couple.
A computer network can be small or can get very large. ResCom management has decided not to support this feature of networking in the residence halls. We believe that the network neighborhood feature promotes the propagation of virus and encourages software and music piracy among students in the residence halls. As we eradicate viruses for students and rebuild their computer from scratch we find that most of the time the cause of the virus is from email and sharing files through the network neighborhood with friends. When asked what do you share with friends, the answer is usually MP3 files.
