The access to the paid resources
for students and employees

Access to the Mathematical Reviews and other resources from home

It is necessary to get the University IP. So, it's a must to create a VPN connection.
Below I'm describing how to set it in Windows 10 (English edition):

  1. You must be connected to Internet. Find the connection icon in the right down corner.
    Right click it and you should see:

    Choose "Open network and sharing center"
  2. In the Network and sharing center window choose:
    "Set up a new connection or network"
  3. In the next step choose
    "connect to a workplace" (not the default one!)
  4. Now, the default choice "Use my Internet connection (VPN)" is OK
  5. Now we're fulfilling the form.
    The internet address is obligatory (Here it is a FQDN of a gateway).
    The name of connection and remembering credentials are up to you
  6. After complition we are tuning the settings:

    Right-click the connection icon and choose "Properties"
  7. In "Security" tab choose "PPTP"

    and below check "Microsoft CHAP Version 2 (MS-CHAP v2)"
    Do not check "Automatically use ..." !
  8. Now the "Networking" tab
    Be sure you're using default gateway of the remote network:
      
  9. Now try to connect using your student or employee account (e-mail account for the domain us.edu.pl)
    and check the connection with the "Mathematical Reviews"
    It should open without asking for any password.
  10. Let me know if something goes wrong
