Configuring 802.1x on Android Devices

  1. Go to the Settings page (Menu button, then Settings).
  2. Click on Wireless & Networks, then Wi-Fi settings.
  3. Click on the wireless network you want to add (we suggest using OLIN_GUEST with your mobile device as it won't create conflicts when you change your user password in the future).
  4. For OLIN_GUEST, simply enter the guest wireless password (available on the portal).
  5. For other Olin networks, scroll down and enter the following information:
    • Identity: username@olin.edu, where username is your Olin network username, e.g. jsmith2, not your e-mail address.
    • Wireless password: Use your Olin domain password, i.e. the password you log into webmail with.
    • Click on the Connect button.
  6. If the above steps do not work, try manually adding the network as shown below.
