JMU Wireless Network Configuration for Windows 8.1 Windows 8 users should see the corresponding guide for that version. Connecting for the first time The Windows 8 line of operating systems has a new user interface called Modern UI that is designed for touchscreen computers and handhelds. Because of this, you must move your mouse/trackpad pointer to a corner of the screen or swipe toward the middle of the screen with your finger for certain things to appear. If you're using a desktop or laptop computer, it may bring you to the classic Windows desktop, shown below, instead of the Start screen.
