Connecting to DET Wireless Network

1.              Open “System Preferences”


2.         Open “Network”



3. Under Location, “Edit Locations”






4. Click on the “+” and name the new location “DET wireless” or “School Wireless”



Click “Done”


5. Select “Wi-Fi”




6. From the drop down menu select “DETDATA”

7. You will be asked to enter in the WIFI password for this network.  You can obtain this from your school IT Coordinator. 

8. Click “Apply”

9. Click “Advanced”


10.  Click on “Proxies”


11. Tick “Web Proxy HTTP”

Enter in the details as follows”
Web Proxy Server:                 proxy.det.nsw.edu.au
Port:                                        8080
Tick:                                        “Proxy server requires password”
Username:                              Your DET username
Password:                               Your DET password

12. Tick “Secure Web Proxy HTTPS”

Enter in the details as follows”
Web Proxy Server:                 proxy.det.nsw.edu.au
Port:                                        8080
Tick:                                        “Proxy server requires password”
Username:                              Your DET username
Password:                               Your DET password


13. Click “OK”


14. Click “Apply”

Note:
You may want to add a new location and name it “Home” so that you can easily switch between home and school when you take your laptop to and from work.  If you keep the proxy settings set when you try to use a different network you will not be able to connect to the internet.  So rather than having to un-tick the proxy settings between different locations you will just have to select the location you’re at from the drop down menu and click apply.  That will automatically turn off the proxy settings when you select your current location.

  2. Work in accounting/bookkeeping
    Stop applying to accounting jobs, and start getting employers to call you
    How many jobs have you applied to through sites just like this one? Guess it hasn’t been working. There are a few reasons why a qualified, experienced accountant/bookkeeper like you can’t get a callback.
    - 100+ people have applied to the same position
    -You’re not the best
    -The director simply didn’t get through the stack to see your application
    -Your cover letter is boring and too long
    -Your resume has irrelevant information or a few errors that you didn’t catch.
    We can help you. Our service will perfect your cover letter and resume and, for as little as $100, get it to hiring directors BEFORE they post the job. Our contacts are reputable companies who are hiring all the time, and with our help, your application will be the first one they see.
    Does it really work? Our clients get called for an interview within days. Since we start working for you right away, don’t be surprised if you hear about a job the day after you contact us. So don’t call us unless you’re ready to find your new bookkeeping job – and ready to start work right away.
