-======= Connecting to the GoeMobile Wi-Fi network =======
-===== Requirements =====
-.) **student account** You'll need a [[en:support:account:|studIT account]] or a GWDG account (an account for employees of Göttingen University) to access the Internet via GoeMobile. It is not necessary to register separately.
-.) **hardware** For using wireless LAN you'll need a computer with a Wi-Fi card (802.11b/g). Today's laptops do have an integrated Wi-Fi card. If this card is not available, you'll need an external USB-device or a PCMCIA plug-in card for your laptop, which can be bought for around 30 Euros each. You can use every network adapter which supports standard IEEE 802.11b/g.
-====== Using / Connecting to GoeMobile ======
-First the user will need to connect to the wireless network, which can be "GoeMobile-Neu" or "GoeMobile" (depending on the location).
-==== Windows XP / Vista ====
-In order to connect make sure that the network adapter is activated or switched on (for notebooks: often via switch/button!). Connect to the wireless network "GoeMobile" or "GoeMobile-Neu".
-{{:support:wlan:drahtlosnetzwerk_wahlen.png?550}}
-In Windows XP / Vista the wireless adapter icon can be found in the lower right corner of the task bar next to the clock (Windows Vista: double click -> "connection to a network"; Windows XP -> "show available connections"). **The network itself is unencrypted (a secure connection can be established later via VPN).**
-==== Using the portal page ====
-It depends on your location whether you can use the portal page (GoeMobile-Neu) for authentification or you have to establish a VPN connection first (GoeMobile). After connecting successfully to the wireless LAN GoeMobile-Neu when accessing a website for the first time the browser will be redirected to a portal page for authentification.
-{{:support:wlan:webportal.png?550}}
-For students: Please type your username with the ending @gwdg-stud in the box.
-<code>
-		example: Maxi.Musterfrau@gwdg-stud
-</code>
-You also can use your student e-mail address as username:
-<code>
-		example: Maxi.Musterfrau@stud.uni-goettingen.de
-</code>
-Now please type your password of your student account in the second field and tick the box asking you to accept the terms of use. When establishing a connection for the first time, you'll need to accept the security certificate (depending on your browser).
-**Attention: Please note that the connection via the GWDG portal page is [[en:support:wlan:verschluesselung|NOT encrypted]]. Other participants could eavesdrop your data. We therefore recommend a [[en:support:wlan:vpn_client|VPN connection]] after connecting to the Wi-Fi network in order to have traffic encryption.**
-**Please have a look at [[en:support:wlan:vpn_client|"How to use the VPN-Client"]] before you establish a wireless connection in the open Wi-Fi network GoeMobile!**
