Campus VPN service – why you might need it
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) lets you use your remote connection as though you
were still on campus. VPN is needed to access restricted campus resources when
you are using a remote connection such as private DSL or Cable Modem
service, a hotel or airport connection, etc. VPN service is free. You will need
to download a client (Windows and Macintosh versions
available) and install it. More about VPN.

DoIT does not provide DSL or Cable Modem service. Please check your local listings
for commercial service providers.
