If you own a computer and live off campus or in a private dorm or apartment, you will need a modem and WiscWorld software to access the Internet via the WiscWorld modem pool. If you own a computer and live on campus in a UW Housing residence hall, you will need the WiscWorld software and either a modem or ethernet card to access the Internet. The ethernet card is used to connect via ResNet, a project of University Housing that wired each dorm room with a high-speed ethernet connection to the Internet.
