Moved Android instructions to http://uniluug.org/wiki/EAP-TLS#Android
==Obtain the VT-Wireless Certificate==
Regardless of what program you use to make your connection, you will need to [https://netcert.cns.vt.edu/netcert/ obtain your p12 certificate and password from CNS], which is needed to establish your connection. Note the certificate password; you can save it permanently if you'd like, but you will only need it during set up.
 
===Android (2.3)===
These instructions are for Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) but may work on older versions. Getting the certificate file on your Android device can be involved. Do any of these three things or otherwise find a way to put the certificate file at the root of your USB storage (SD card):
 
* Email the certificate to yourself, then use your '''browser''' to access your email and download it to the '''SD card'''. Using the native Gmail client will not work.
* Use Dropbox or another such service and put the certificate file there. Then, use an Android client to access and download it. Note that you will need to likely use a file browser (such as '''ASTRO''') to move the certificate file to the root of your SD card (typically /mnt/sdcard).
* Connect your Android to a PC via USB and enable USB mass storage. Drop the certificate file right at the root.
 
Next, access Android settings and choose '''Location & Security'''. Scroll down and tap '''Install from USB storage'''. You will be prompted to create a keystore password (if you haven't done so already) and to enter the password provided by NetCert for the key. Once done, make sure the '''Use secure credentials''' checkbox is checked.
