Since CS does not maintain wireless connections, if you will not be connecting to JHU's "hopkins" wireless system, then, you will need to use a CAT-5/6 cable for your network connection.
DHCP service on the grad net is available from CS offices other than the Croft 225/227 Undergraduate Lab (as it has its own DHCP service.)
Once you plug your computer into a network wall-port:
Open a browser.
Browse to some website.
Your browsing call will be intercepted by our DHCP server.
Fill out the form that appears, and click submit.
Once you see a confirmation page appear, please reboot your machine. You will now be on the CS net (Grad/Research net) with a dynamic IP.
