Connecting To The Internet At School?
So how do I do it? I'm clicking my internet access icon and it shows the following networks:

MacSecure
MacConnect
MacConnect-1
eduroam
Other Network

So which one do I chose?

I tried clicking MacSecure and it asked me for a username and password. I tried typing in my MacID and pass and it didn't work for the first few tries even though I'm sure I typed it correctly. Then it suddenly connected...so...uhh. ..Help!!

Click on "Other Network", a green goblin icon than appears and asks you 5 multiple choice questions. If you correctly answer all five he will then direct you to the next stage. I cannot speak of the next stage as I have never given the correct answers. One day I will get internet access... one day.

You connect to Mac Connect ( the one that doesnt require a password). Then you go to your internet browser, IE, Firefox, Chrome etc.. it will redirect you to a log in screen. From there type in your Mac ID and password. Once thats done, you will be connect and able to use the internet

If I were you, I wouldnt worry about that. As long as your getting internet it really makes no difference where its coming from
