How Do I Connect To A Liberty-i Network? |
| A1: |
Whether you're connecting via Ethernet (cable) or via Wireless, connecting to a Liberty-izone is simple. Please note you will need to purchase a Liberty-i prepay card containing a scratch off panel which reveals your unique authorisation code to access the Internet. In the event of accessing a liberty-izone via wireless, your WLAN adaptor must comply to IEEE 802.11b Global Wi-Fi (WECA) standard.
1A.
Wireless. You either have to have your own wireless card or integrated wireless function installed or you may use the Liberty-i card with its software prior to getting connected to the Liberty-izone and the Internet.
1B.
Wired connections (Ethernet). Plug in the cable in your hotel room to either your integrated Ethernet port or Ethernet adaptor card.
2.
Switch on your computer and allow it to fully boot up.
3.
Click on your Internet Explorer to go to the login page.
Once you are at the login page, you will need to enter the unique pass code on your Liberty-i prepay card. Once you have done that, you will be connected to the Internet for the period of time you have purchased. |
