Please note that support for handheld devices is not officially provided by the PCSC. The information below is provided for your convenience, and we hope it will be helpful.

WIRELESS ACCESS

Many handheld devices come bundled with an Internet service, making use of the BU network unnecessary. Because most residences do not offer full wireless access, handheld users are sometimes better off using the handheld's bundled service, and those who cannot use 802.1x technology, or the VPN, will have to. For those who do hope to use the BU wireless network, information is outlined on the related page at www.bu.edu/pcsc/vpn/handheldVPN.html.

USING E-MAIL

Regardless of your method of Internet access, you should be able to access your BU e-mail using one of the following methods:

• Configure the handheld's mail client to read BU e-mail using the settings described at www.bu.edu/pcsc/email/configure/. iPhone or iPod Touch users should follow the specific instructions outlined at www.bu.edu/pcsc/email/configure/iphone/.
• Use the handheld's Web browser to access BU e-mail at www.bu.edu/webmail.
• Forward BU e-mail to an e-mail address that will work on your handheld. You can set up forwarding as described at www.bu.edu/pcsc/email/configure/forwarding/.
