TAMU WiFi - Connecting with ChromeOS

Overview

Connecting a ChromeBook to the TAMU_WiFi SSID is similar to connecting an Android mobile device to that network.

Instructions

Manual setup

Use the following settings to manually configure Chrome OS to connect to TAMU_WiFi:

1. EAP method: PEAP.
   2. Phase 2 Authentication: None. If "None" is not an option, choose MS-CHAPv2.
   3. CA Certificate: Do not check (or something similar to this option - the default option will not work).
   4. Enter NetID under Identity (leave Anonymous Identity blank).
   5. Enter NetID Password under Password.

Automated provisioning

You can also configure a ChromeBook to connect to the TAMU_WiFI network is to use our automated network provisioning tool. This method requires a connection to the Texas A&M network in order to function, such as from the TAMU_Visitor wireless network.

1. Connect to the network.
2. Go to u.tamu.edu/provision.
3. Follow the directions on the screen. Import the certificate into the tab opened automatically by Chrome.
4. Verify that your device is connected successfully by changing your wireless SSID to TAMU_WiFi.
