Wireless Connectivity & Power

In the Hewlett Teaching Center there is wireless connectivity throughout the building and front lawn areas. The user and password will be made available to you during the conference. When you launch your browser with a URL, it will redirect you to the Stanford login page.

During the conference, power strips are provided throughout the stadium seating in the auditorium. You may find a power outlet where there are green arrows painted on the floor. The green marker indicates that there is a power outlet behind the seat it is pointing to. Some power outlets already have power strips connected.
