Connect to the NCEAS network

Wifi: Find a CD or USB flash drive containing the WiFi key and follow the instructions here: How to connect to the NCEAS wireless network
Send Email
If your academic institution or ISP does not allow sending email from outside its network you can use NCEAS' email server. Change the SMTP server in your email program to mail.nceas.ucsb.edu. Remember to write down the name of your current SMTP server so that you can change it back when you leave NCEAS.
See our list of printers to find one close to you and follow the setup instructions at Printing at NCEAS.
Survey
It helps us a lot if you can fill out the computing survey. You can either use the printed version that came with your package or do it online.
