| Yes, Starbucks has free Wi-Fi, but does Starbucks have free books? Free Movies? Free research help? Well, the Dayton Metro Library offers all of those at every location. That's right, every DML branch offers free Wi-Fi. To enjoy the service, your wireless card settings should be: SSID = Library WEP= disable WEP encryption Mode or Network Type = intrastructure mode or access point, not adhoc On a Windows machine, right click on "wireless network connection," view "available wireless networks," choose "library," and click connect. Mac users select "Apple menu," "system preferences," "network" button. Then select the TCP/IP tab and "configure using DHCP." You may also need to select "configure via Airport" or "other wireless ethernet." The current acceptable internet use policy for library computers applies to wireless use as well. We might not be able to configure the great variety of machines out there, but we'll do our best to help get you set up. |
