How can I get a wireless card?^
Cards may be purchased from the Bookstore, local stores, or online. UAS has pools of wireless cards and adapters for desktop and laptop computers that are availble for semester-long checkout from Housing (residents) or the Computer Lab (non-Housing residents).

You can update your operating system, install and update anti-virus software (you can even use the same security software as the UAS campus!), and be cautious about programs from emails or the Internet.
