Automatic Accounts

You get an NYU NetID. This ID is printed on your NYU ID Card. If you don't know Nancy, Gordie, or Midori can look it up for you. To activate your net id and set a password go to http://start.nyu.edu/

If you have trouble with this check out the activation information on this help page

You get an NYU e-mail and homepages account.
The NYU e-mail address: netid@nyu.edu
The homepages URL is: http://homepages.nyu.edu/~netid/
Access e-mail and update homepages through
https://home.nyu.edu/

ITP is set up for wireless computing, as is the Lobby of 721 Broadway, Bobst Library, and many other NYU Buildings. Anyone with a valid NYU Net ID can access it. Instructions for how to set up your laptop to access the NYU Wireless Network can be found at: http://www.nyu.edu/its/wireless/configure.html

ITP is now set up with a small pool of IP addresses that can be set up to connect your laptop to the ITP wired network. This is a good back up in case wireless access isn't working. You have to register for this access through ITS at: https://www.nyu.edu/its/accounts/online/roaming.html

The user is your NYU NetID and password is your NetID password. The language of the web form refers specifically to the roaming laptop plug-in network at Bobst Library, however all roaming registrations is submitted via this form.

You will need your Ethernet Card Address/ethernet firmware number/MAC Address.

• For Macintosh it's "ethernet address" at System Preferences -> Network->Ethernet.
• For windows see instructions here.

Please read A Word about Passwords.

In particular, be aware of Nancy's Soapbox Directive: Do NOT ever send passwords in e-mail.
