There are two internet options:
- Wired internet in your room
- Wi-Fi network
The Wi-Fi is a supportive network, it can be slower during rush hours and/or in certain part of the building. If you want a constant Wi-Fi network we recommend you create your own Wi-Fi with the wired connection in your room.
Wired internet in your room
Follow these steps to connect to the wired internet connection in your room:
- Connect your computer with a UTP network cable to the wall outlet in your room. Bring your own or buy your own cable that is suited for your device. De Key does not provide cables!
- Boot your computer and go to www.google.com.
- You will be prompted to read and agree to the rules of engagement of the internet provider.
- Fill out the requested information (you need your tenancy agreement number).
- Reboot your computer and you are ready to go.
