Mobile LAN

1. How to Use

Connection method

Refer to here for connecting each OS.


  1. Enable wireless connection.
    Please enable Wi-Fi connection on the network connection setting or etc.

  2. Detect Wireless Access Point.
    The wireless LAN access point has one of the following SSIDs.
    When you are in a place where radio waves can reach you will automatically find one or more of the following.

    SSID
    IEEE 802.11
    Encryption method
    mieu-mobile-a
    11 a/n/ac
    WPA2-PSK-AES
    mieu-mobile-g
    11 b/g/n
    WPA2-PSK-AES

    Because there is a difference in the wireless LAN standard, "mieu-mobile-a" can connect more stably.
    Please connect to "mieu-mobile-a" at first. If connection is unstable please connect to "mieu-mobile-g".

  3. Connect to wireless access point.
    Please select "mieu-mobile-a" or "mieu-mobile-g" and enter the network security key (password).

    Network security key (password) is here.
    (internal access only. To access from outside the university, please use a unified account.)


  4. When entering the network security key, the following screen may be displayed.
    If it is displayed, please select "No".

  5. Launch the web browser and access "http://a.cc.mie-u.ac.jp/".
    The next authentication page will be displayed automatically.
    *For websites that begin with "https://", the authentication page is not displayed.
    *Please do not bookmark the authentication screen. It is impossible to connect at the next authentication time.

  6. Enter the user ID and password of the unified account, select the connection time, and click the "接続(Connect)" button.
    After successful authentication, you will move on to the next authentication page.
    Please do not close this authentication window.

  7. If you select "Do not specify" for "connection time" and connect, you will be taken to the next authentication page.
    To finish the connection, close the authentication window.

  8. The time displayed to the right of the user ID at the top of the authentication window indicates the time when the connection confirmation was received from the authentication server.
    If this time is delayed by 5 minutes or more, or it switches to the screen like the one below, it may be disconnected for some reason.
    Please close the web browser and re-authenticate.
    If disconnection occurs frequently, specify the connection time and perform authentication.

Setting each OS

Note

There is no problem in the case of your PC, but on a shared computer, if you forget to disconnect, there is a danger of being used illegally.
