Step 1: Connection to the network
Within the University campus, you will be able to use this service with either a network cable or your computers wireless card. If you use a network cable, you will need to plug your laptop into a FREEnet socket.
If you use a wireless card, you will have to connect to the "UJI" wireless network (SSID=UJI). The university areas with wireless coverage are marked with the following signs:
