Electronic Resources: Troubleshooting ... and Beyond

A guide to assist with electronic resources access and alerting users to temporary outages.

About Firewalls

When all other troubleshooting solutions do not solve the problem with accessing electronic resources, the underlying cause may be your firewall.  A firewall safeguards a network by controling incoming and outgoing network traffic.  A firewall could impede off-campus access to some of our electronic resources.  

If you are accessing our resources from home, please make sure http://ezproxy2.library.colostate.edu/ is included as a safe site in your home network's firewall.

You can also circumvent the proxy server and its associated firewall issues by logging in through the secure VPN, which opens a single browser window to a campus IP.
