Making Sure You Are On The City High Network

Every once and a while a signal from a neighboring wireless network will be strong enough that your laptop will connect to it without you knowing it happened. In some cases you can actually access the internet over one of these connections, but you aren't able to print or access our file server. You can check to see if you are on the City High network by clicking on the Airport strength icon in the upper right corner of your desktop as shown below:



Make sure the "City High Wireless" network is selected. Enter the password if you are prompted and select the option to remember the password. (Sensitive information such as passwords will not be posted online. Contact me directly if you need a password) Whenever you have trouble getting online, prtinting,etc this should be the first thing you check.

First Post - Welcome!

This is the first of what I hope will be many helpful postings related to tech issues at City High. Tech related annoucements including troubleshooting tips and other general helpful hints will be posted here. I will email everyone a heads up whenever an important posting has been added. As you run into problems in the future this should be the first place you go (assuming you have access to the internet). If you cannot find a solution to your problem or answer to your question on the blog feel free to contact me via email: johnw@cityhighschool.org , phone: extension 219 , or drop by my corner. Like many other blogs this will be an open forum in which you can feel free to post comments, ask questions,etc. Always remember that a stupid question does not exist, especially when it comes to technology.
