Select a connection method
The best option is [[EAP-TLS]], which provides strong, two-way authentication to ensure that neither you or the authentication server can be impersonated. Unfortunately, setting up EAP-TLS can be someonewhat involved because it requires a certificate to be installed on the device. If this is a problem, you should try [[PEAP-MSCHAPv2]] as it still provides somewhat strong authentication and allows connection to the encrypted VT-Wireless network.
[[VT_WLAN]] is an unsecure captive portal wireless network. It requires no set up at all, but you must log in with your PID and password every time you connect. Since it is not secure, it is simple for any and all unencrypted traffic on the network to be sniffed by anyone within range and is also vulnerable to deauthentication attacks. Its use is strongly discouragediscouraged.
