1. Your contact info.
2. A brief description of the problem.
3. Any error messages you see.
4. Steps you've already tried (restarting, checking cables).
5. Device details (make, model, operating system).

If you have DATO’s offered PassPortal tool, verify the credentials recorded for the application or site you're attempting to access

1. Navigate to the PassPortal login page.
2. Search for the subject application or site.
3. View the password and verify.
4. Update the credentials as necessary.

  If you do not have DATO’s offered PassPortal tool or the credentials are not recorded in PassPortal, follow the standard password reset process for the specific application or system if presented.

1. Go to the login page of the application or system.
2. Click on the “Forgot Password” link.
3. Follow the prompts to verify identity (e.g., via email or security questions).
4. Reset the password using the provided link.
5. Inquire with the DATO Support team about accessing PassPortal password manager in the future.

  If self-service is not an option, contact the DATO Support team for assistance.

The top 3 ways to resolve most issues are:

1. Restart the problematic device.
2. Ensure that you're properly logged in to the right environment.
3. Confirm all cables are firmly connected at both ends.
