Off-Campus Access

For remote access to University network resources, we recommend using Terminal Services or SSH over a high-speed broadband connection such as cable or DSL. Contact your local service provider for more information on options currently available. However, as an alternative, we have limited dial-up access available through PPP.

Residence Hall Network

The Residence Hall Network provides high-speed internet access in all 7 Residence Halls on campus.

Research Grid

The IT Division houses and administers a centralized university research grid, which is used by UNR researchers to run complicated simulations involving massive amounts of data at a much lower cost than setting up their own computer cluster.

Wireless Access

With your NetID, you can work wirelessly on your laptop or PDA in 32 campus buildings and 4 outdoor areas.
