Residence Hall Network Connection Minimum Requirements
Students living on campus have the opportunity to connect to the UMass Dartmouth Residential Network. If a student desires to have a network connection in his or her room, his or her computer must meet the minimum configurations specified in the table below.
Once students have set up their computers correctly, they are required to register the computer on the network via a web-based registration system. Students authenticate themselves on the network using their email username and password.
Telephone support is available at x8040 (ResTech Help Line) or via email at ResTech@umassd.edu.
