NYU-NET Proxy Access
If you connect to NYU-NET using a non-NYU Internet Service Provider (ISP), you may need to use NYU-NET Proxy to authenticate yourself as an NYU community member when you are connecting to certain NYU resources. For instructions, visit the NYU-NET Proxy page.
Broadband Internet Access at Home
If you ordinarily connect to the Internet with a non-NYU Internet Service Provider (ISP) such as AOL, Road Runner, or Verizon DSL, you can continue to do so with NYU-NET. You may also find it convenient to use a broadband connection if you're traveling and want to log in to NYUHome from another computer.
NOTE: AOL's browser is not compatible with NYUHome. You can use AOL to establish a connection to the Internet, but you must use the current version of Firefox, Safari, or Internet Explorer to log in to NYUHome. Once AOL is launched on your computer and an Internet connection is established, reduce all the AOL windows on your desktop. Next, launch Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Safari from your hard drive. Using that browser, go to http://home.nyu.edu, and you will be able to log in to NYUHome. For further assistance or if you have difficulty connecting, see the NYUHome FAQs.
