| A laptop or other wireless-enabled device is needed to
access WiFi. Wireless access uses the WiFi standard
(also known as IEEE 802.11a, b or g). |
| |
| If your laptop does not have wireless built in, you must
purchase a WiFi-compatible network card. The library
cannot guarantee that your equipment will work with the
library's network. |

How do I log on to the library's WiFi? |
| |
|
Let your computer connect to the strongest signal (CARL

Army star should appear. You may need to turn off your
popup blocker or change your browser home page if this
screen does not appear – try carl.army.mil. |
