Connection Procedure

 

Connection Procedure for all computers

In order to initiate your connection to the network;

  • Plug your network cable into the computer and the other end into the unoccupied network socket in your room (normally labelled ??-A).

  • You should follow the Student Registration Guide to view the terms and conditions for a connection and will be stepped through the automated process of registering and vetting your computer to allow full internet connectivity.
  • If you are newly arrived in college you can also obtain your account details for all the centrally managed services via another route. You can use the Computers in 4/10 or Library (Graduates can also use the MCR computer). Log on with the username ‘signup’ with no password. You will be taken to a website where you will be prompted for your name, date of birth and admissions code (e.g. UCAS, BGS, GTTR numbers). Once you have successfully entered this information you will be given your Central Registration ID (CRSID) email, Desktop Services (PWF) and Raven account information. Your email address is <crsid>@cam.ac.uk which will be used for all administrative communication by the College. If you have any difficulties at this stage please contact the IT department located in Z22.
