Our wireless network requires users to log in. To log in, open a web browser (Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape or Internet Explorer, for example). Click the "UOnet Authentication" link. On the next page, enter your username and password. Your username is your UOregon email address including the '@' symbol, and your password is your email password.
