This network is only accessible by Students, Staff, and Faculty. The following instructions will work for macOS, iOS, and Windows devices. Android devices have different security requirements, so please view the Android Instructions section below.
- Locate the Wi-Fi network titled Bethel in the network connections on your device (phone, laptop, tablet)
- Enter your Bethel Community Account Username and Password (same credentials you use to login to MyBethel)
- Accept or Trust the certificate prompt.
For most Android phones, the following instructions will not be successful, because of updated security requirements by Google (which controls the Android operating system as a whole). An updated method for Android devices to connect to the Bethel network is in progress, but not available at this time.
Certain makes and models of Android phones, such as some Samsung Galaxy phones, will still be able to follow the below steps to gain successful connection to the network. All others will need to use the Bethel-Guest network for now.
- Select the Bethel network on your Android device you will be given a screen that looks like this:
- Your settings should match the screenshot above, where EAP method is set to PEAP, Phase 2 authentication is set to MSCHAPV2, and CA certificate is set to Do not validate.
- Add your Username to the Identity field and Password to the Password field. Anonymous Identity can remain blank.
- Click Connect.
