What are the minimum requirements necessary for computers to access ParkWiFi?
The ParkWiFi system is compatible with most of today’s operating systems. Minimum requirements are at least Windows 2000 for PC users and OS 9 or higher for Macintosh users. Linux operating systems and open source browsers are also supported. Users will also need to have a network interface card (NIC), sometimes simply referred to as a network card, which is a piece of hardware designed to allow communication over a network. Most computers purchased within the last three years come standard with a network interface built into the motherboard, thus eliminating the need to purchase additional hardware. Most desktop computers may be wired directly into the CPE (see below) using an Ethernet cable.
