Configuring UO Secure (Android)

Question

How do I connect to UO Secure on my Android devices?

Solution

Connecting to UO Secure with UO WiFi Setup

  1. Visit wifi.uoregon.edu and select Get connected
  2. Click Download to download the SecureW2 JoinNow application from the Google Play Store.
    • Note: You will likely need to switch to the UO Guest network to get the download to finish once it is started.
  3. Click on the Join Now button; this will open the JoinNow MultiOS application.
  4. Enter your Duck ID (the first part of your UO email, before the @) and password, then hit Next.
  5. You may see a notification come up, either titled Save this network? or Allow suggested Wi-Fi networks?. Make sure to select Save or Allow on the notification.
  6. The program should automatically connect you to UO Secure. If it doesn't, select the Wi-Fi icon on your top bar once more, and try reconnecting to UO Secure, it should allow you on the network now.
  7. Keep JoinNow installed on your device, as you may need to reconnect through it if connection settings change in the future.
Getting an error about "network not in range" when you finish this process? 
  • Off campus: This is normal, and your device should connect automatically when you come to campus. (The error message may also say your password may be incorrect—which may be true if you get to campus and your device doesn't connect automatically; see below.)
  • On campusYour password is likely incorrect. You may need to start the process over again, or visit the Technology Service Desk for help.
