    "500 Internal Server Error" trying to connect to academic wireless network

    If you're running Windows Vista and receive the error message "500 Internal Server Error" when attempting to connect to either of the academic wireless networks (i.e. @kun3t or KU Instructional Wireless), follow these steps to resolve:
    • Open Internet Options, either from Control Panels or via the Tools menu in Internet Explorer
    • On the Security tab, click Trusted sites. Click the Sites button and add the website https://bearnet.kutztown.edu
    Trusted sites
    • On the Privacy tab, click the Pop-up Blocker Settings button. Add "bearnet.kutztown.edu" to the list of allowed sites

    Pop-up Blocker Settings
    • Close Internet Options
    Note that this fix only applies to Vista computers connecting wirelessly to either of the academic wireless networks (i.e. @kun3t or KU Instructional Wireless) and does not apply to the ResNet wireless network.
