Where can you connect to the UQ Library LAN?
LAN connection is available to UQ students via Ethernet network ports (RJ45 plug) available in most libraries. See the friendly staff at the Ask I.T. Help Desk for further information.
What do you need to use the UQ Library LAN?
To access the Library Network you need a:
Laptop computer
Laptops are also available for loan to students from the following University of Queensland Libraries, however conditions apply:
St Lucia Campus - Duhig Building
St Lucia Campus - Biological Sciences Library
St Lucia Campus - Dorothy Hill Physical Sciences and Engineering Library
Ipswich Campus - Library Building 8
Gatton Campus - Library Building 102
Network card, configured to automatically get an IP address from a DHCP server
Network cable (Network cables can be borrowed from the St Lucia and Ipswich Ask I.T. Desks and from the Biological Sciences Library . Cables can also be purchased from UQconnect or from most computer hardware stores. University requirements are for a minimum of a 1m CAT5 twisted-pair cable)
Web browser (eg. Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox) with correct proxy setup
Current student UQ Sign In Username and Password
NOTE: You cannot use your dial-up Modem to connect to the network outlets in UQ Library buildings because you are not using a Dialup connection to access the Internet. You are connecting to a LAN (Local Area Network) , which allows you to access the Internet through the library's WWW proxy-server.
Although they use a similar type of cable plug as your modem, the network outlets are very different from telephone sockets and could possibly cause permanent damage to your modem if you attempt to use it on them.
