Show me where's the connectors
To connect, you have to have a straight twisted pair (RJ-45) patch cable, available for about $5 in any computer store. We do not provide or rent cables.
You will also have to configure your computer as follows:
| Name: | atrium0-1n |
| IP address: | 192.168.0.1n (where 'n' is the connector label number) |
| Domain: | internal.atrium |
| Mask: | 255.255.255.0 |
| Gateway: | 192.168.0.1 |
| Primary DNS: | 142.150.224.224 |
| Secondary DNS: | 142.150.224.6 |
The server's security is set up in such a way, that it will not allow connection of any misconfigured machine, therefore you have to follow these settings precisely.
Once you have set up your computer and connected it via the patch cable, you will have a full access to the Internet.
