====== WPA Enterprise secure wireless network ======

With the traditional "Physics" wireless network, you need to log in by opening a web browser after connecting, and there is also no encryption. With our new "PhysicsWPA" network, you authenticate using your stored physics username and password, and a secure encrypted connection is created, which is probably as secure as a wired connection.

You should see a new wireless network name (SSID) called 'PhysicsWPA', when browsing wireless networks.  You can connect to this using one of the following settings:
  * WPA, TKIP, PEAP (mschapv2)
  * WPA2, AES, PEAP (mschapv2)

More specific directions for connecting using various systems are given below:

===== PhysicsWPA uses your Physics account =====
Please note that your University internet (x.500) account does __not__ currently work for WPA. You must login using your physics account.

**Note - you need to have changed your Physics password within the last two years to be able to log in to the WPA network, otherwise we may not have the correct information stored to authenticate you.**
