I am working from home using VPN, and need to access my computer screen on my workstation on campus, how do I do that?
There are several requirements for Remote Desktop Connection:
- Know the computer name or IP address of the on-campus computer to which you want to remotely connect. Please get with your System Administrator within your department if you do not know your computer name or IP Address.
- The on-campus computer must be turned on and operating in a non-hibernating or high performance mode.
- The on-campus computer is set to allow remote desktop connection.
- You will need to use your CougarNet credentials.

- Ensure you are successfully connected to VPN. Visit the VPN website for connection instructions.
