Overview
Wireless networking setup differs depending on the operating system you use and the network you are connecting to.
Note: Devices such as streaming devices (Roku, Chromecast, etc.), gaming devices (Xbox, PlayStation, etc.), and IoT devices (Smart bulbs, Amazon Alexa, Google Home, etc.) do not support WPA2 Enterprise connections and should instead use the TAMU_IoT network.
