How to connect an MS-Surface RT to the secure campus wireless
2014/01/29

- This worked on a 1st generation Surface, but with Windows 8.1.
- No problem getting onto the UNCC49er network, but the Surface/Windows 8 is not supported on the NINERWifi-secure yet. Specifically, loading the automated configuration tools provided when first trying to access the NINERWifi-secure, fails on the RT platform.


- I received seemingly conflicting instructions:
- The campus website
- has for devices that are not supported manual configuration settings.
- Another campus that uses the same secure wireless provider has these instructions for Windows 8.
- I could piece it together from there,
- including any translation to (there is none needed that I could see which BTW actually amazes me) Windows 8 RT.
- Maybe the following would have worked also, but I did not try it since I was already in the middle of the above steps:
- Swipe in from the right-edge of the screen, and tap Settings. (If you’re using a mouse, point to upper-right corner of screen, move the mouse pointer down, and then click Settings.)
- Tap or click the wireless network icon Wireless network icon. A list of available wireless networks should appear.
- Look for the “Hidden Network” option and then choose it.
- When it prompts for a SSID, type in exactly: NinerWiFi-Secure
- It should then prompt for username/password (NinerNET credentials).
- Say yes to any certificates warnings that pop up.
- The campus website
“Back to basics”: Need once again to default to color scheme basic on teacher computer

- Same problem as last term: (What made it come unstuck/unfixed?):


- No Sanako screen sharing activity involved here, but MS-Community-Clips screen sharing.
- Classes are moving in, and we cannot have the teacher computer slow to a crawl and eventually crash in the middle of a Sanako class, especially not when an assessment is involved.
