This guide assumes you have some knowledge of Linux operating systems. You should also change the default password of your pi account!

1. From a different device, download this certificate, you’ll need it later. We suggest putting the cert on a USB flash drive to easily move it to your Pi.
2. On your pi, create a directory for the cert to live:

    sudo mkdir /etc/certs

3. Copy the cert to the /etc/certs directory:

    sudo cp -v /path/to/USERTrust_RSA_CS_2038.cer /etc/certs/

4. Use nano to edit the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file:

   sudo nano /etc/dhcpcd.conf

5. Add the following lines to the bottom of the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file:

   interface wlan0 
   env ifwireless=1
   env wpa_supplicant_driver=wext,nl80211

6. Launch the Raspberry Pi configuration menu:
   • From the Raspberry Pi’s terminal, type: sudo raspi-config
   • This should launch a menu, select Localization Options….
   • Select Change Time Zone and select US/Eastern
   • Select Change Wi-Fi Country and set to US United States
   • Select Finish
7. Manually set the date and time with the command below. (Replace values with the current date and time).

   sudo date -s "Mon Sep 16 10:54 2019"

8. Create a HASH of your UVM NetID password by entering the following in the command line:

   echo -n "your_uvm_netid_password" | iconv -t utf16le | openssl md4

   • Copy the resulting string after (stdin)=, you’ll use that in the Step 9.
9. Use nano to configure the wpa_supplicant.conf file:

   sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

   • Below is what your wpa_supplicant.conf file should look like.

     You’ll need to replace ‘netid‘ and ‘YOUR_PASSWORD_HASH‘ with your UVM netid and the password hash you created in Step 8.

     country=US
     ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
     update_config=1
     network={
            ssid="UVM"
            scan_ssid=0
            key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
            eap=PEAP
            identity="netid"
            password=hash:YOUR_PASSWORD_HASH
            ca_cert="/etc/certs/USERTrust_RSA_CA_2038.cer"
            phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
     }

   • Press Ctrl + X to save the file.
10. Reboot your pi

    sudo reboot

1. Open the Settings app.
   
   
2. Tap the Wi-Fi settings icon.
   
   
3. Tap the UVM wireless network.
   
   
4. Enter your UVM NetID and password, then tap Join in the top right corner. (If you’ve forgotten your NetID password you can reset it here: https://uvm.edu/account)
   
   
5. Trust the radius.uvm.edu certificate. Note that the correct certificate is signed by InCommon RSA Server CA
   
   

That’s it! You’ve successfully connected your iOS device to the UVM wireless network.

1. Open the Wifi settings and select the UVM network.
   
   
2. Configure the connection settings as follows:
   EAP Method: PEAP
   Phase 2 authentication:  MSCHAPV2
   CA Certificates: Use system certificates
   Domain: radius.uvm.edu
   Identity: your_uvm_NetID
   Anonymous Identity: <leave blank>
   Password: your_NetID_password
   

   If your device does not allow you to select “Use system certificates” as shown above, please see the Android – manual certificate installation guide below.

3. When the settings have been entered, tap on CONNECT.
   
   

That’s it, you’ve successfully joined the UVM Wireless network on your Android phone!

Some Android device manufacturers do not provide pre-installed system certificates for remote system validation.

If your Android device does not give you the option to “Use system certificates” when specifying settings for connecting to UVM wireless, you can manually install the required certificate instead.

1. Navigate to https://go.uvm.edu/wificert in your chose browser.
2. Many phones will install the certificate automatically when the download completes. If your device does not do this, you can tap the downloaded AddTrustExternalCARoot.cer file to install it.
   1. If prompted, enter your phones passcode.
3. Some phones require that you name the certificate and specify its use:
   Certificate name: UVM wifi
   Credential use: Wi-Fi
4. After installing/naming the certificate, open your devices Wi-Fi settings and select the UVM network.
   
5. Configure the connection settings as follows:
   EAP Method: PEAP
   Phase 2 authentication:  MSCHAPV2
   CA Certificates: UVM wifi
   Domain: radius.uvm.edu
   Identity: your_uvm_NetID
   Anonymous Identity: <leave blank>
   Password: your_NetID_password
   
   

To register your game console or media streaming device to the WIRED UVM network:

1. Fill out the Play Online Form: https://go.uvm.edu/playonline.
2. Shut down your console or media streaming device.
3. Turn your device back on. You should now have internet access.
   1. If you still do not have internet access, wait 5 minutes, then reboot your device again.

Wireless printers are not able to connect to the UVM Wireless Network – they aren’t designed for use with WPA2-Enterprise networks, a common WIFI network standard used by UVM and most other universities.

Additionally, it is not recommended to register a printer on our NetReg database for use with an Ethernet connection. Doing so represents a security risk; anyone connected to UVM’s network via Ethernet will be able to see your printer and print to it. This can lead to unwanted print jobs, excessive ink and paper use, and other issues.

Instead, you should use a printer cable to connect your printer to your computer. This direct connection will be required every time you want to print, but gives you the most control over your printer, and will work reliably. These cables can be picked up at the UVM Tech Store, though many printers will include them.
