Wireless Internet

Guests at Mitchell County Regional Health Center can now access the Internet wirelessly using their own portable computers. Visitors can bring their laptops or PDAs into the facility and easily access their e-mail, do some work, even look up medical information about the procedure their loved one is having so they are prepared to ask questions.

The only requirement is that the laptop or PDA is equipped with a Wi-Fi compliant wireless Ethernet card and a standard Web browser (this is standard equipment on most computers).

Wireless Internet access is available throughout Mitchell County Regional Health Center.

Troubleshooting

Having difficulty connecting? Here are things to check…

  • There are a few areas, such as stairs and elevators, where no wireless is available.; Move to another area and try again if you think the wireless network (Wi-Fi) is not present.
  • Ensure that your SSID is set to “guestnet001.” Refer to your Wi-Fi card manufacturer’s instructions on how to set the SSID. If you’re using Microsoft Windows, the setup process is usually automatic.
