McCombs Internet Access

You can access the Internet three different ways when you are in the business school complex.

Computer Labs

You can access the Internet using a computer in one of our computer labs.  You can also use your notebook computer in one of the labs and use a network port or wireless internet.  For more information on the McCombs computer labs, go to the computer labs web site.

Network Ports

Network ports are available in the following locations:

  • Millennium Lab, CBA 5.322 - 146 ports
  • MOD Labs, CBA 5.304 & 5.325 - 80 ports
  • Reliant Productivity Center, CBA 4.112A - 250 ports
  • Cohort Rooms, GSB 3rd floor - 60 ports per room
  • Atrium, CBA 3rd floor - 56 ports
  • 5th floor Hallway, near CBA North - 2 ports
  • 4th floor Hallway, near CBA North - 2 ports

Networks ports create a secure connection. Using a cable to connect to a network port is the safest way to conduct online shopping or banking transactions.

Wireless Access

Wireless internet access is available in most of the business school complex, including the CBA, GSB and FAC buildings. Wireless access is not secure.

Your computer should find the wireless access point automatically; it is called utexas. To connect, open an Internet browser and log in with your UT-EID and password. Once you are connected, you can use any Internet-based service, such as IM programs and Outlook.

Wireless access campus-wide is supported by ITS. If you have problems with your wireless connection on-campus, contact the ITS Help Desk at 475-9400 or visit their offices at FAC 200-B.* Read more about the wireless network.

* If you own a McCombs notebook computer, visit the SWAT Shop before visiting ITS.
