As of July 2009, Yale tightened security for online access all over the campus.   To access the wireless network at the Yale Law School, laptop users can log on through VPN, Yale Secure (with netID), or Yale Guest.  VPN and Yale Secure wireless connections allow full access to all licensed e-resources; however, people who log on as Yale Guest will not be able to access any licensed resources.  For members of the Yale Law community, instructions for configuring laptops can be found on YLS Inside under Department Documents -> Wireless Networking.  Instructions for Windows Vista also work for Windows 7, see instructions here.  If you have problems connecting to the wireless network, Law School ITS User Support is available to help.   Located on L2 of the Law Library in the ITS Computer Cluster, the computer help desk is open Monday - Friday, 8:30am - 5:00pm to address your concerns.  You can also reach them by email or phone (203-432-0821).
