Connecting your Windows computer to APUWIFI

1) Start up and log onto your computer

2) In the bottom right corner of the screen there will be an icon of a world that is grayed out and has a skip sign in the top right of the area

3) There should be a number of networks to connect to, with the “APU” in front of the channels find and click on the one labeled “APUWIFI”

4) This will highlight that network, and there should be a “Connect” button, as well as a “Connect automatically” checkbox

5) Check the box if you want your computer to automatically connect to the selected network each time you log on to your computer (A good idea if you plan on logging onto this network with any frequency) keep the box unchecked if you want to manually login to the network each time you log on to your computer. Click the “Connect” button

6) This will bring up a “Windows Security” Network Authentication dialogue box which will prompt you to enter your username and password. Your username is your APU Net ID, it is your email address without the domain. For example, if your APU email address is “aperson15@apu.edu” your username would be “aperson15” The password to log on to APUWIFI is the same as the password you set to access your APU account.

7) Once you have entered those pieces of information click the “OK” button. A Windows Security Alert dialogue box will more than likely appear, asking if this is a legitimate connection, and if you want to continue to connect, or terminate the connection process. Click the “Connect” button.

9)Wait a couple of seconds and a little radio symbol will turn white and then you are connected
