Non SIM-based Connection Guide

Step 1

If your device supports EAP-SIM, please go to the SIM-based Connection Guide . If not, please proceed to Step 2.

Step 2

Ensure that your wireless device has a compatible wireless adapter.

Ensure that your wireless device has an IEEE 802.11b/g (Wi-Fi) compliant network adapter. Most newer wireless devices have built-in wireless adapters. If your wireless device does not come with a Wi-Fi network adapter, you will need to purchase a separate adapter. If you have an external adapter, ensure that the driver for the adapter is properly installed before proceeding.

Step 3

Verify that your wireless adapter is turned on.

For laptops with built-in wireless adapters, ensure that the wireless switch that is usually physically located on the front or side of the laptop is turned on. Some laptops have a Wi-Fi Light Emitting Diode (LED) that will turn red/blue/green to indicate that the Wi-Fi is on.
