Before You Begin

These instructions assume you have a computer running Windows XP Professional with at least Service Pack 2 (right click My Computer and click properties to check) and an installed wireless network interface card (NIC) which supports WPA encryption (most do except for some older models).

Step 1

Go to Start > Control Panel > Network Connections, select your wireless network connection, right click on it and select Properties.

...

If you are still unable to connect after following the above instructions, please contact the Help Desk at (617) 557-2000 or email helpdesk@suffolk.edu.

Notes

You should not need to enter your credentials on subsequent connections to SU_Student_WPA2 or SU_Staff_WPA2 unless you change your password.

Troubleshooting

You can clear out the credential cache by editing the registry. Fire up the registry editor (START->RUN->REGEDIT) and delete the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\EAPOL\UserEAPinfo registry key.
(DO NOT do this unless you feel comfortable editing the registry)
