Wireless - Connecting to UWL-Eagle WiFi (iOS)

Learn how to connect your iPhone or iPad to the UWL-Eagle Wi-Fi network on campus. This article walks you through opening Wi-Fi settings, selecting UWL-Eagle, signing in with your NetID username and password, and trusting the network certificate to complete the connection.

Step 1: Find and open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad — it looks like a gray square with gears on it. Once you're in Settings, tap Wi-Fi.
