Setting up a wireless device like a phone or tablet for PacerNet Wi-Fi is quick and easy.  You shouldn't require any special setup or assistance to connect to Wi-Fi.

Just locate "PacerNet" in the list of available Wi-Fi connections. Connect to it by entering your Pacer Account username (without the @usca.edu) and password when prompted.

If your device asks for additional settings during setup, make sure to use the following :

  • Set the EAP method to “PEAP,”
  • Set Phase 2 authentication to “MSCHAPV2,”
  • Set the CA certificate to “Don’t validate,”

If you don't see PacerNet listed or can't connect, please contact the Help Desk for assistance.
