Internet Registration (UPDATED for FALL 2008)



To Register


The registration process begins the first time you access the Internet from your room in the Residence Halls. This webpage will walk you through the steps.

Prerequisites:


ResNet requires that all computers on campus have Symantec (Norton) or McAffee Antivirus installed and current. If you do not, Utica College provides Symantec Antivirus 10.1 free of charge, and you can install it during the registration scan. You can use Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari to complete this registration, but Internet Explorer is prefered (and reqired for the Symantec Antivirus).

NOTE: If you own an Apple computer, please contact ResNet to obtain a Symantec Antivirus installation CD.

Step One


When you first try to go to any website, you should be directed to the Registration System Introduction Page. If not, try to go to http://resnet.utica.edu.

Step Two


If you accept the agreement (you must in order to connect to the Internet) you will be directed to the client download page. This utility will verify that you meet the minimum Operating Sytem, Service Pack, and Antivirus requirements. If you do not for any reasons (such as you do not have a supported Antivirus Program, or your definitions are out of date) you will be directed to a link with possible solutions to the problem. If you do make changes, you will need to press the re-scan button to complete the verification.

Step Three


Once the utility is installed and all changes are complete, your computer will be able to access the internet.

NEW FALL 2008 - With the Bradford Persistent Agent, you will not need to log in to use the internet each time you reboot. Instead, the CAT Pro will verify that you meet the requirments, and will prompt you if anything needs to be updated.

Why can't I register?


In order to complete registration, you must be on campus. Off-campus registration is not allowed.

Can I use a PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox, Xbox 360 or Nintendo Wii on the Internet?


ResNet has finalized the registration steps for video game consoles. You will need the Wired Connection Adapter (Sold Seperatly for Wii and PlayStation 2) as Wireless is not availible in all Residence Hall Rooms at this time. You will need to connect the console once to the internet, and then using your computer, go to to the console registration website

Can I use a SONY PSP (PlayStation Portable) or Nintendo DS on the Internet?


No, because these consoles need a wireless Internet connection, which is not availible at this time. Also, ResNet does not have any way to register these consoles on our Wireless System in areas where availible.

I still need assistance.
