* Dawna, you say you are getting an error "server not found". Are you able to access the internet, though? I wonder if your laptop is set up to access non-eHealth wireless. If you are able to access the internet but not the regional server, please contact eHealth to see if they could set it up so you can see their network instead. If not, hey, at least you will be able to reference the wiki from medical records - should not have to access Regional Server from there anyway. Please update here what you find out.

* no wireless in atrium, but we don't collect there, so OK
*We do not have wireless in the data offices either because they are not located within the hospital.  Our offices are in the Education Building which is not a clinical area.  --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 09:29, 2016 November 30 (CST)
