Wireless and Wired Networking
All EPH students have access to the campus network via wireless,
ethernet, and PPP (modem). Loaner wireless
cards are available for EPH students that do not have one of their own.
Connecting to the Campus Network via Wireless
The Yale wireless network supports the 802.11b (wi-fi) standard. All
wireless cards must be registered and configured to gain access to the
network. All wireless users must use the VPN when accessing the wireless network
in the Medical Center (inlcuding the School of Public Health).
Registering your Wireless Card
Yale School of Medicine and EPH students may use a laptop computer
with their own wireless card on the Yale Wireless Network.
- One has to register the wireless
card in
order for the campus network to allow access.
- One has to download
and use the VPN client in order to use the network. The VPN encrypts
all traffic between your computer and the campus network. It also allows
access to IP-restricted resources like electronic journals and databases.
EPH Students
can get assistance configuring their wireless connections from Matt
Wilcox, Director of Academic Technology (matthew.wilcox@yale.edu), or
from the ITS Computing and Media
Center. Click

Wireless Loaner Cards
EPH loans wireless cards to EPH students and EPH joint degree students
when they are based at EPH. There is no cost for this service.
