If you already have an Internet Service
Provider (ISP) and do not plan on switching
to Stargate, you can still access the VPN
for an additional monthly charge.  In addition to providing ISP services, Stargate is also the managed service provider for the external UPMC VPN.  Affiliates using Stargate's ISP services receive VPN access as part of the monthly ISP charge as a result of this relationship.  Affiliates using an ISP other than Stargate, however, are charged for access to the VPN by UPMC ISD.

To subscribe to VPN Only Service, please read how to become an authorized VPN user.  VPN Only Service only applies to UPMC affiliates using an ISP other than Stargate.  You must also separately register internally with UPMC for VPN authorization.
