WIRELESS NETWORKING FOR CAMPUS VISITORS

Now when your colleagues or friends visit the CU-Boulder campus you can give them access to wireless networking throughout the campus in one of two ways. The new UCB Guest Wireless service http://www.colorado.edu/its/wireless/guest gives sponsored guests access to public-facing web pages for up to five days.

To establish an account for your guest, follow these steps:
(Right now, you must use Firefox when you are setting up the account, and the user must use Firefox to access the log in screen.)
1) You must log in with your own identikey and password at:
http://ucbguestsponsor.colorado.edu/
2) Select the option to create a new user and enter the name and valid date/time information
3) The system will assign a log in and password for the user

When the guest is ready to log in, they must follow these steps:
To access UCB Guest Wireless:
1) Select UCB Guest as your wireless network.
2) Open a web browser and go to www.colorado.edu. They will be automatically redirected to a login page.
3) Use the guest username and password to login in.
4) After logging in they will be redirected to an information web page about UCB Guest Wireless.
They are now free to use UCB Guest Wireless for basic Internet activity.
If the web browser allows pop-ups, there will be a window that has a log out button. The guest should click on this button when they are done using UCB Guest Wireless.

NOTE: UCB Guest Wireless only provides general Internet use. Guests cannot access CU-Boulder resources that require on-campus connections, such as Library resources and other protected servers and services that are provided strictly for CU-Boulder affiliated students, faculty and staff members.

Those visitors that are on campus for a conference or who require access to non-public facing CU-Boulder resources such as library resources can request a Conference IdentiKey at http://www.colorado.edu/its/docs/accounts/conference.html
