[Mobilepartners] Got Mobile? How to Connect Securely to MIT's Wireless Networks

[Matthew D Sullivan]

Good Morning,
 
As a reminder, MIT's open wireless networks will be retired in January 2012. 
 
If your mobile device – iPhone, iPad, Android, or BlackBerry to name a few – is currently set up to connect to either the MIT or MIT N wireless networks, you will need to "forget" these networks under your device's Wi-Fi options. The MIT SECURE, MIT SECURE N, and MIT GUEST wireless networks will remain in place and will enable you to connect your mobile device securely. 
 
Instructions on how to connect your mobile device to MIT SECURE or MIT SECURE N are provided through these links: 
 
Mobile Platforms Supported by IS&T
Apple's iPhone, iPad, and iPod 
Android
BlackBerry 5 OS
BlackBerry 6 OS
Windows Mobile 6.x
 
Unsupported Mobile Platforms
Windows Phone 7
webOS
Maemo 5
MeeGo 1.2
 
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have not changed your Kerberos password since June 2010, you will need to change it before using the MIT SECURE wireless network. This will ensure that your password is synchronized with MIT SECURE's authentication servers.
 
You can change your Kerberos password online.
