  1. Accessing the Internet

  2. Your Device • Your device can connect to the internet two ways • Wi-Fi • Ethernet • Even from home your device blocks certain sites just as it does at school.

  3. Connecting with Ethernet • At home you can connect your device to the internet using an Ethernet cord. • They are usually blue • Plug the cord into the port with this symbol.

  4. Connecting to Wi-Fi • To connect to the internet using Wi-Fi, select the network icon from the bottom right toolbar. • Choose the name of the network you wish to connect to. • You may need to enter a password

  5. Free Wi-Fi • You can take your device to the many businesses and connect to Wi-Fi for free. • You can take your device to the library and connect to BCPS wireless network.

  6. Web Filter • The filter built into your device will block certain sites in school, at home, and anywhere else you access the Internet (library, McDonald’s, etc.). • For example, social media sites like Facebook will be blocked. Google searches will be filtered to show only appropriate content. • You may not try and access sites that are blocked by the filter; that is a violation of the Student Acceptable Use Policy. If you see an inappropriate site not blocked by the filter, you must report it to your teacher.
