Wireless Internet Access

The Grossmont College Library offers wireless Internet access to students, faculty, and staff.

We have provided this service for those who are able to make use of wireless connections. However, due to the complexity and variety of equipment and settings that each individual may have, we cannot provide support on an individual basis.  If your computer cannot connect, we suggest you use one of the computer stations provided in the Library or Tech Mall.

Use of the wireless hotspots is subject to and included under the provisions of the District Computer Systems/User Rights & Responsibilities Procedure .

In order to use the service you will need:
 

• a web browser
• your own computing device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.)
• a wireless network card that is IEEE 802.11b or 802.11g compliant

Please note that wireless printing is not available.
