Internet Registration (UPDATED for SPRING 2008)



To Register


The registration process begins the first time you access the Internet from your room in the Residence Halls. This webpage will walk you through the steps.

Prerequisites:


ResNet requires that all computers on campus have Symantec (Norton) or McAffee Antivirus installed and current. If you do not, Utica College provides Symantec Antivirus 10.1 free of charge, and you can install it during the registration scan. You can use Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari to complete this registration, but Internet Explorer is prefered (and reqired for the Symantec Antivirus).

NOTE: If you own an Apple computer, please contact ResNet to obtain a Symantec Antivirus installation CD.

Step One


When you first try to go to any website, you should be directed to the Registration System Policy Accept Page. If not, try to go to http://resnet.utica.edu.

Step Two


If you accept the agreement (you must in order to connect to the Internet) you will be directed to the scan page. This online scan utility will verify that you meet the minimum Operating Sytem, Service Pack, and Antivirus requirements. If you do not for any reasons (such as you do not have a supported Antivirus Program, or your definitions are out of date) you will be directed to a link with possible solutions to the problem. If you do make changes, you will need to press the re-scan button to complete the verification.

Step Three


Once the scan and changes are complete, press the continue button. This will install the CAT Pro client, that will let you log in (replaces the URT Java Client from the past) and will allow you to register your computer.

NEW FALL 2007 - With the CAT Pro Client, you will not need to log in to use the internet each time you reboot. Instead, the CAT Pro will verify that you meet the requirments, and will prompt you if anything needs to be updated.

Why can't I register?


In order to complete registration, you must be on campus. Off-campus registration is not allowed.

Can I use a PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox, Xbox 360 or Nintendo Wii on the Internet?


ResNet has finalized the registration steps for video game consoles. Please check with us for more information. You will need the Wired Connection Adapter (Sold Seperatly for Wii and PlayStation 2) as Wireless is not availible in all Residence Hall Rooms at this time.

Can I use a SONY PSP (PlayStation Portable) or Nintendo DS on the Internet?


No, because these consoles need a wireless Internet connection, which is not availible at this time. Also, ResNet does not have any way to register these consoles on our Wireless System in areas where availible.

I still need assistance.


You can email ResNet at ResNet@Utica.edu or you can call us at x-4585 or (315)792-4585.
