The setup is completed and you may launch the tunneling to NTU Campus network by entering your userid, password and domain name (student or staff). Use the format  student\userid or staff\userid to logon to the Campus network.

Please note that you must be connected to the Internet before you can perform the tunneling.

 

For example, if your userid is MHTan in Student domain, you have to enter student\MHTan as the username.

Before you make any VPN connection, please disable any firewall or 'Internet Connection Sharing' that is running at the background of your computer system.
