DukeBlue: Android Manual Setup

Duke University has implemented a secure wireless network known as Dukeblue which uses the authentication mechanism WPA-2 Enterprise and 802.1X. When correctly installed and configured, this network can protect your Duke NetID and password, and ensure your data and transactions are secure and protected.

In order to connect to the secure network, adjustments will need to be made to your device settings. Follow these steps to configure your Dukeblue connection for your Android device so you can take advantage of this layer of security.

 

  1. Make sure that Wifi is enabled on your phone.
  2. Go to Google Play Store and install the app "securew2", but DO NOT OPEN THE APP. If you already have it, make sure to uninstall it and then install it again.
