Using the  Manufacturer's Wireless Management Utility

There are a variety of wireless enabled devices that might be able to use WPA2, but do not use common operating systems. Additionally, some people prefer to use the wireless management utility provided by their manufacturer.

  • Network/SSID: airuc-secure (you may have to manually type this in)
  • Network Authentication Method: WPA2 (also sometimes called WPA2, WPA2-RADIUS, or WPA2-Enterprise)
  • Data Encryption Method: AES
  • EAP Type: PEAP
  • Authentication Protocol: MSChapv2
  • CA Certificate: VeriSign Class 3 v4 (or similar)
