Clean Access Installation Instructions

In order to logon to the Residence Hall Network (RESNET) you must first have Clean Access installed on your machine. The following instructions are for PC users who have Windows 2000/XP or Windows Vista.

Please follow the screen shots shown below for installing and connecting to RESNET using Clean Access Agent. (These screenshots are for Vista and may look different on XP, but the process is similar)

  1. When you connect your computer to RESNET first time, you will be directed to a page for authentication which will then allow you to download the Clean Access Agent software.
  2. Once you have downloaded (we recommend saving the file to your desktop and then running it from there) and installed the Clean Access Agent, you will be presented with authentication screen for login to RESNET. This screen will be presented every time you need to connect to RESNET in the future, and will pop-up automatically after you computer has finished loading the startup programs every time you start.
  3. After authentication, Clean Access Agent checks your system to ensure that it is meeting security requirements (enforced by the WestConn Clean Access Server, that you computer must have all critical patches installed, auto-update turned on, anti-virus software installed and updated).
  4. In case you are missing any required software (or updates), you will be presented with a screen where you click 'Go To Link' or ‘Updates’ for the remediation. If you are missing an Optional software, then you can still continue with the login process by pressing 'Next'. Although we do allow you to continue using the network without meeting the optional requirement, but we strongly encourage you to fix the missing requirement as soon as you can so that your computer is safer and connecting to RESNET process would be quicker next time.
  5. Before you connect to RESNET, you must also accept 'Network Usage Terms and Conditions'.
