UMSL Student Ethernet
Ethernet is an “always on” connection that provides network access at speeds considerably
faster than a dial-up connection. For students in the Residential Halls, this service is included
with the room and board fees. For University Meadows residents, there is a per-semester charge, billed through your student account with the Cashier’s Office.
Requirements:
Ethernet adapter
This may be a built-in port, an add-on card, or a USB adapter. If the adapter was not
pre-installed, please follow the adapter’s included instructions to properly install the adapter and
driver software. If you have problems installing your adapter, you must contact the manufacturer; the Technology Support Center at UMSL cannot support your computer or its hardware.
Ethernet cable
You may use a Category 5, 5e, or 6 cable. This is often called a patch cable. A crossover cable will not work, nor will an ordinary telephone cord. You can purchase this cable at the University Bookstore.
Gateway ID/SSO ID
You will need to enter your Gateway ID. If you have not looked up this information, please visit:
http://sso.umsl.edu
Residential Hall Students: To activate your Ethernet connection, contact the Technology Support Center at 314-516-6034. The port should be activated during your call.
University Meadows Residents: Complete the Information Access Services form linked off of
http://www.umsl.edu/technology/phones. You will be contacted when your data port is activated.
For more information and setup instructions, please go to: http://www.umsl.edu/technology/support and click on Getting Connected.
