If you have upgraded to Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or Windows 7 and need your ResNet connection to work you should bring your computer to our office. We'll get some information from it and let the computer bypass the Cisco login until they release a client for these two operating systems (supposedly around Thanksgiving). Your computer will bypass the login until that client is released then you'll be required to download and use that to access the network.
