ORNL Visitor Wireless Network As a visitor to Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), wireless computer networking is available to you in many of our buildings. To gain access, you must have a badge issued through the Personnel Access System (PAS), and your PC must have a wireless Ethernet card. If you do not have a wireless Ethernet card, a limited number of wired-to- wireless Ethernet bridges may be available from your host organization. In ORNL building 5100, Joint Institute for Computational Sciences (JICS), the wired-Ethernet may also be used by visitors in the same manner as described in this document. To gain access to the wireless network, follow these simple steps. 1. On some systems, your card may be able to see the visitor network (ornl-visitor). If so, you may be able to simply click “OK” or “Connect” to establish a connection. In fact, some systems will do this automatically. If not, you will have to manually configure your wireless card as follows: a. Open your wireless card’s configuration utility. b. In your card’s utility “create” a new profile or “edit” your current one and select the setting called “SSID” or “Network Name.” Type in ornl-visitor (all lower case). c. Set the data encryption method to “disabled.” d. “Apply” these new settings and reboot your computer
